Anybody tried changing LAN address to 192.168.xx.xx IP range?

[SteveD]

As I posted on the Almond+ bug hunt board (http://forum.securifi.com/index.php/topic,1719.0.html), I am unable to configure the LAN settings on my A+ to use the 192.168.xx.xx IP range to replace my existing router. With the A+ LAN interface set to 192.168.xx.1, or even 192.168.xx.254, no wired or wireless devices will pick up an address via DHCP even after a restart. Using the front panel to re-configure the A+ to the default 10.10.10.254 router LAN address restores DHCP. Before I spend any more time researching the problem while waiting for a response from Securifi I thought I'd ask other A+ owners if they'd successfully changed the LAN settings on theirs. Thanks.

I have successfully changed the IP address of the router to 192.168.1.1 and DHCP starts at 192.168.1.100.  Everything from wired to wireless has been working fine for 2 weeks now

I can't remember if I made the change with the touch screen or the webUI but I think I used the touch screen.

Yes, I've done so via the lcd and web interface. I'm currently using 192.168.5.x

Are you restarting the almond or your computer?
Remember that your computer won't try to grab a new IP if the lease for the one it has hasn't expired yet.
Have you tried a release/renew on the client?

Thanks for the feedback everybody. Thanks to a comment from Joe in the Bughunt forum I now know this may actually be the DHCP bug where the DHCP Server field "Number of Leases" should actually be "End Address" - see thread http://forum.securifi.com/index.php/topic,1549.msg4943.html#msg4943. I'll report back tomorrow after I've had a chance to test.

My LAN access on my A+ is a 192.168.1.x range, but i don't use the A+ for DHCP though.

Probably the easiest way to change this is ssh into the a+ and edit /etc/config/network and /etc/config/dhcp

Full explanation of the format of these files is found here:

I had no problem switching from the default 10.10.10.xxx to 192.168.1.xxx.  THe A+ replaced my current router so it does everything.  Its the only router in my network

[SteveD]

It was the DHCP lease count vs. DHCP range end bug I was running into. Once I accounted for that, the A+ came up just fine as my primary router.
