I have installed Amahi and it looks great. I have connection with my other computers but I cannot get on the internet. I stopped the dhcp server of my router (Fritz!box 7270) and use the one of my Amahi. The lan is perfect but no computer has an internet connection. Also not the Amahi server. I spend a hole day yerterday to find a solution, but i did not find any. Please help me because i hope to be able to use this server.

First thing do do is, right after you turn off DHCP Server on your router is, restart your Amahi box.
If that does not fix it, make sure you turned off DHCP SERVER and not DHCP WAN, DHCP WAN needs to stay on, thats the side coming from your modem, SERVER=LAN which is going to your network out of your router.
As to the clients, after you get internet on your Amahi box, restart each client so they get a good lease from the server.
Hope this helps.

I think the attachment will not go, but here is what it shows:
The IP addresses of FRITZ!Box can be changed here.

Did you set your router ip to 178.1 instead of 1.1 during install?

I only closed the dhcp server of my router and did not change anything else.

No, when you started a new server, you should have come up with the below image and changed 1.1 in the network to 178.1. Did you do that?

- new network
