Jonny_Fortino Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) So I'm very new to unraid. I had freenas working as my home server for a while but cabin fever made me want to shake it up and try something new. So long story short I've read every forum on here about network connection and I've tried everything and I'm ready to put my head in the drywall. I'll give you the rundown, So my router is setup with my unraid server static and 1 cat6 comes from the router in the livingroom snaked along the baseboards and ceiling all the way into my office and then into my closet of doom... A place where cable management fears to go. Then into a netgear 24 port gigabit switch that has my pc (this one), the server, a few raspberry pi's and formerly my freenas server routed from it with no issues I get 230 down on my pc. Yes I have tried running the mainline right to the unraid server. Yes I tried bonding off Yes I updated to the experimental Yes I restarted the router No I don't have a network card, It's built into the motherboard. I need an intervention before I loose my mind please help.... Edit: I am still on a trial key, I would love to buy a full key but I need to know this os will work for me before I commit tower-diagnostics-20200410-1300.zip Edited April 10, 2020 by Jonny_Fortino solved Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Shouldn't the gateway you've set be your router's IP address? GATEWAY[0]="68.186.144.1" 1 Quote Link to comment
Jonny_Fortino Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 Well I tried that just for fun. No luck Quote Link to comment
Jonny_Fortino Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 OK SOLVED!!!!!!!! Where it says "optional metric" it defaults to "1" just for shits and giggles I set it to "0" and BOOM it works now. I'm so happy and also angry that I spent DAYS on this and the solution was LITERALLY just changing a 1 to a 0 typical computers.. Quote Link to comment
