Server blocking internet access to network PCs

Postby sc4s2cg » Thu Apr 01, 2010 3:24 pm

Hello,

So for the past month and a half the server had to be disconnected and shut off, and I was unable to do anything with it due to RL.

The problem started when our family switched to ATT for our internet, and got a brand new router with it. The 2Wire 3800 HGV-B. Since that router, whenever I connected the home server to our network noone had internet access, including the server. This happened even when I shut off the DHCP + DNS servers. The home server was able to access the router address (192.168.1...), however not the internet.

I would like to fix this over spring break (ends Sunday), so any help would be greatly appreciated. :)

Hello,

Since you changed providers, the IP assigned by your new connection is most likely different. Amahi should adjust automatically, however it would be a good idea to verify on http://www.amahi.org.

Did you change any IP addresses with your new router? Is the DHCP server disabled on the router? These could be part of the problem.

Recommend you also take a look at http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Network_troubleshooting as this might help resolve your problem. Please let us know how it goes and if we can be of further assistance.

i think your *internal* network and the gateway IP may have changed with a router change.

use the gateway change script via command line in the server:

Code: Select all

hda-change-gw [gateway IP]
Example if your default gateway (router) now has an IP of 192.168.0.1:

Code: Select all

hda-change-gw 192.168.0.1
Note: You will need to restart your server after applying the change.
