March 14, 20242 yr Hello all! I've recently indulged with unraid on my home server, and to my surprise issues have arisen. THE ISSUE: I setup the USB with DCHP (have tried assigning a static unused ip on my network, didn't work) and once i boot off of that drive and setup unraid and it gives me the IP to connect to, that's where issues start. When TRY to connect to the IP it gives me it does an infinite loading screen on my browser unlike every video I've seen, and I've followed multiple videos to a T, it just wont connect to the server. Everything else in the installation works perfect and the server gets setup it just wont let me connect to the actual unraid root setup in the browser where i set a password. Any help is greatly appreciated. *I've also tried to setup the IP on a mobile hotspot, 2 COMPLETELY separate networks, and please excuse my lack of knowledge, this is all foreign to me..
March 14, 20242 yr Community Expert How do you know what IP ? Do you have an attached monitor and keyboard?

You need to deal with that in your router, or whatever device is running the DHCP server. so just to reiterate a little, i have tried multiple different IP's including ones i have pinged and no device claims aswell, still the same outcome, it doenst matter what ip, how its setup, or any of that it still does the infinite loading until it fails to connect.
