No internet from HDA

[g16mt]

New to Amahi. Did express install can logon to HDA from windows system, in dashboard didn't see any Apps. On HDA terminal changed gateway to 192.168.0.2 using "hda-change-gw" command on HDA, used gateway address same as all other systems on LAN, see Apps but only once. If logout and back in don't see Apps. If look at dashboard using advanced settings Network settings looks correct.

I have tried looking at the Forums and FAQ but have not found an answer. I hope someone can help.

Thank You

Recommend you check out the network troubleshooting page in the wiki.

Sorry should have mentioned I did try the Network troubleshooting tool. When I tried to install the network tools package I get:

[root@localhost ~]# yum install net-tools bind-utils
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
http://f19.amahi.org/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] curl#6 - "Could not resolve host: f19.amahi.org; Unknown error"
Trying other mirror.
Error: failure: repodata/repomd.xml from amahi: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.
http://f19.amahi.org/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] curl#6 - "Could not resolve host: f19.amahi.org; Unknown error"

I'm guessing that the error is because I don't have internet access on the HDA. If that is the case is there another way to install the tools.

When I try the interactive network troubleshooter steps 1-3 are okay step 4 fails I get the following:

[root@localhost ~]# nslookup hda
-bash: nslookup: command not found

Yes that indicates there is no internet connection. You might need to restart your network in order for the HDA to get a new DHCP lease.

Are you using your router as the DHCP/DNS server or the HDA? Also are you sure the HDA is on the correct subnet? When you made the change, you should have done so as indicated in the change IP address guidance in the wiki. You might try that now if it will allow. No need to run command line with Amahi 7 for that capability.

You may also need to restart the networking afterwards. As root user do:

Code: Select all

systemctl restart network

Then check to see it's running:

Code: Select all

systemctl status network

Yes I'm using my router as the DHCP/DNS for now. In windows my subnet is 255.255.255.0, I don't know how to check it on my HDA. I did follow the change IP address guidance in the wiki.

I was able to see available apps after restarting my network and installed two apps, but cann't open them. I get Server not found error.

Each time I restart the HDA I have to logon and restart the network to see available apps in dashboard.

[bigfoot65]

When not using the HDA for the DHCP/DNS server, accessing apps is a bit different and some features may not be available. Please see the FAQ regarding network setup pitfalls.

Reinstalled Amahi, turned off DNS and DHCP in router also changed windows network settings for IPV4 to obtain an IP automatically and same for DNS server.
Things seemed to work until HDA is rebooted. After reboot this is what I get from Network Troubleshooting for Step 4 output:

[gpserver@localhost ~]$ nslookup hda
Server: 208.67.222.222
Address: 208.67.222.222#53

[root@localhost ~]# nslookup hda

Have you tried the interactive network troubleshooter?

Seems odd that it works until reboot.

[g16mt]

Yes that is what I used, the above output is from failed step 4 and what it had me done. I also thought it was odd that a reboot would cause a problem.

[bigfoot65]

What is step 4? Does the gateway settings match your router?

Happy to help.
