So recent events in my life have landed me living in a motor coach at a local rv park. While 5g/starlink/etc are an option, I would like to attempt to get my unraid server online through the included internet service.

Currently have a tp205 extender hooked to the park WiFi and everything in my space connecting to that. In the past I have used this setup with my ring “contractor” security kit hardwired to the extender with great success. What id like to do is use the t205 Ethernet port to connect the unraid server to the network.

I have attempted to do so but I can not locate the server on a network scan of the devices on the network. I can see all my other devices.. and I can see basically all the devices in the park. But the unraid server seems to be MIA.

Anyone else done this type of thing without having access to your network’s main router config (such as the case with public WiFi or campsite WiFi?)

Would love to have access to my 80k in music (and plex movies for that matter)

I would suspect that you would need to confirm the hardware has been configured in the Access Point Mode rather than the Extender Mode. Google for the manual for your device if you don't already have it.

You might also look at the Unraid 7.1 versions as they have added WiFi support to it. (If you are going to do this I would suggest that you also set up Tailscale VPN unless you want to potentially share your server with everyone in the park.)
