Knights21 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Hello, hoping someone can help me with this. I've installed a HG612 fibre modem and connected it via ethernet cable to a NightHawk R8000 router. All my devices can access the server and internet via LAN but the server does not connect to the internet. I tried the DNS settings and default gateway address but couldn't figure it out.

trurl Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Are you sure your server has the correct date and time? Those diagnostics are several days old according to timestamps Quote Link to comment
Solution Knights21 Posted February 5, 2023 Author Solution Share Posted February 5, 2023 They were correct at time of posting, now a few days old. Trial and error has resolved the issue, my default gateway was set to the modem and not the router. 🙄 Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Best approach is to let all devices on your LAN use DHCP, then for any that need fixed IP address, reserve that IP by MAC address in the router. That way everything is managed in the one place that really matters. Quote Link to comment
