Can Almond+ join computers on different subnets?
« on: January 14, 2018, 03:07:53 am »
I got bunch of devices on different IP subnets (i think that's what it's called)

My PC is 192.168.1.10
My IP cameras are 192.168.2.100-115
My Server is 192.168.3.50

etc...


I managed these devices from my PC, and I find myself having to change IP addresses (the 3rd octet only) just so i can connect to each device with different 3rd octet..
eg:
My PC switches between the following IP addresses.

Orig IP: 192.168.1.10
if i want to connect to IP cameras: 192.168.2.10
if i want to connect to IP cameras: 192.168.3.10

.... having to change all the time is getting annoying
I understand that routers are able to bridge/forward packets from different subnets and i was wondering if Almond can do this and how?

I should also mention that I'm using a TPLINK TL-R480T+ Multi-Wan Switch..

My network looks like this:




Any help would be appreciated!

@ BrownChiLD,

If I am not wrong, TP Link is the main router, which is providing the IP addresses to the client devices. Hence, try setting up the Almond+ in the Access point mode that should ensure your devices are communicating with each other without any concerns because the complete network would be running on 192. Thank you!

i see, ill try that. but , what Subnet setting? 255.0.0.0?
do i need to set anything else on the router? like a VLAN thing to connect different subnets and stuff?
