thegreatgumbino Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 I upgraded my wifi router to an Orbi system tonight and changed my wifi password. After it was setup and running properly, I checked on the unRAID server and was unable to log into the web GUI. I am able to pull it up through the linux console and can log in fine. I ran "diagnostics" and have attached the syslog. Any ideas as to why I am unable to log in from Safari or Firefox at http://10.0.1.220/? It was working without issue prior to changing to the new wifi router. Thanks tower-diagnostics-20180720-2149.zip Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 What OS are you using to try to login on? The reason for this question is that Windows will now assume that you are on a different network because there is a new MAC address on the router. I understand this will cause recent version of Windows to shift from Work (or Home) network setting to a Public setting. The Public setting severely limits access rights. Link to comment

Trying to login on Mac OS High Sierra. I can try logging in on my wife's Windows machine if needed. Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Are you trying from a wired connection or a wireless connection? Has the server a fixed IP address or is assigned by DHCP? If fixed, did you 'tell' the router about this address? (I am not familiar with the Orbi system but it might be a bit more secure than your old router!) Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Quick Google showed that the default IP address is 192.168.1.0. You will probably have to reassign the server to that range. (Or change the default IP address range on the Orbi.) Link to comment

(I am not familiar with the Orbi system but it might be a bit more secure than your old router!) Wireless. The server has a fixed IP address of 10.0.1.220. The Orbi is managed from an iOS app, and it sees the server as a wired connection. Here's a screen shot of what it shows. I tried connecting via ethernet through the switch as well and no luck either. Link to comment

Sounds like this is what I need to do, correct? Quote edit /boot/config/network.cfg nano /boot/config/network.cfg Change the Use_DHCP line to be "yes". CTRL-O saves, CTRL-X exits Then powerdown -r Alternatively, you can also powerdown the server, pull the stick and edit the same file on your desktop Link to comment

I can now access the web GUI. Thanks for all your help, Frank! Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 You may be able to convert this assigned IP address to a 'fixed' IP address so that DHCP will always assign this address to your server. (This can be very useful for some applications, particularly if anything is using NFS.) Link to comment
