Unable to connect remotely after change in home network configuration
Posted: Wed Mar 16, 2016 5:28 pm
I recently added a new router to my home network because I wanted a faster router than the router supplied by Verizon Fios. I had Amahi 8 on Fedora 21 running great before I added the new router.
This is how my home network is now set up: The coax(Fios) cable goes to the Verizon Fios Actiontec Router. There is a ethernet cable from the Actiontec WAN port to the new Netgear router LAN port. The Fios router gateway is 192.168.1.1. The Netgear gateway is 10.0.0.1. The Netgear router uses 192.168.1.2 from the Fios router.
I considered converting the Actiontec router to a "bridge", but I can't do that because I need it to run things like Whole Home DVR and OnDemand from Verizon Fios.
I have the HDA computer connected to one of the LAN ports on the new Netgear router. I used this command to change the gateway: hda-change-gw 10.0.0.1
I am running Amahi 8 with OpenVPN, Plex MS, and OwnCloud. I have set up the port forwarding on both routers for OpenVPN and Plex, and I think I have set up the port forwarding correctly because I can access Plex MS from outside of my network. Everything seems to be working fine when I am at home connected to my home network.
When I am away from my network (at work), I can connect using HDAConnect, it says that it connects correctly. However, I can not access my shared folders, and I can not connect using Putty, and I can not get my Amahi dashboard. I was able to connect to all of these things fine before I added the second router/changed the home network setup.
I assume that something in my network settings or port forwarding is not done correctly, but I can't seem to figure out what.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks!
