Nov 10 20:27:09 <brancaleone> hello, i have a strange problem today with my fonera 2.0n. I was not able to connect to the internet, always got the orange page saying "your internet is misconfigured".
Nov 10 20:27:56 <brancaleone> In fact internet connectivity was good, i suspect it was a dns problem on the fonera (i could ping an internet ip address and do dns lookups on external dns)
Nov 10 20:28:13 <brancaleone> so i just rebooted the fonera via the dashboard menu
Nov 10 20:28:44 <brancaleone> but since the reboot, i cannot connect to my private wi-fi anymore. Signal is good but i don't get any reponse from DHCP.
Nov 10 20:29:15 <brancaleone> I tried to set a fixed IP adress but still cannot contact the fonera on private wifi or ethernet cable connexion
Nov 10 20:29:50 <brancaleone> now i'm connected into my own public signal, which works great. But since i can't connect to the fonera, i don't know how to solve that problem
Nov 10 20:30:55 <brancaleone> so if you have any suggestion about this... :)
Nov 10 20:32:34 <voorstad> @brancaleone: sounds weird. Are you sure it wasn't just cache?
Nov 10 20:33:07 <voorstad> Anyways, have you tried resetting to factory settings already?
Nov 10 20:33:45 <voorstad> Let me see...
Nov 10 20:34:37 <voorstad> Yes, here's the procedure: http://wiki.fon.com/wiki/Restore_Factory_Settings
Nov 10 20:34:57 <brancaleone> no i didn't tried the reset yet, because i don't find my settings backup
Nov 10 20:35:25 <brancaleone> and i'm sure it's not cache (tried on 2 computers, with reboots)
Nov 10 20:35:40 <voorstad> Are you running the latest firmware?
Nov 10 20:35:53 <brancaleone> yes, gary jr
Nov 10 20:36:41 <brancaleone> you remember how are named backup settings files ?
Nov 10 20:36:49 <voorstad> mmm, since gary jr I hardly see the orange page anymore
Nov 10 20:37:10 <brancaleone> yes, it was first time since the upgrade
Nov 10 20:37:16 <voorstad> No, but I can find out, one moment
Nov 10 20:37:40 <voorstad> ah, and did you reboot afterwardrs?
Nov 10 20:38:12 <brancaleone> yes, the upgrade was some weeks ago. I mean since that upgrade i've never had the orange
Nov 10 20:38:23 <brancaleone> first time today
Nov 10 20:39:13 <voorstad> LaFonera_Settings.bin
Nov 10 20:39:48 <brancaleone> right, thanks, i've got it
Nov 10 20:40:33 <voorstad> do you have the dev version?
Nov 10 20:40:41 <voorstad> (green interface)
Nov 10 20:41:57 <brancaleone> you mean the dashboard background ? It's green but i'm pretty sure i didn't installed the dev version
Nov 10 20:43:34 <voorstad> well, can you ssh into the router?
Nov 10 20:44:56 <brancaleone> no, connexion refused (but i'm on my public wifi signal)
Nov 10 20:45:37 <voorstad> ok. my bet would be to reboot once or twice
Nov 10 20:46:17 <voorstad> If that fails, I'd start the factory reset and install the latest dev version
Nov 10 20:46:42 <voorstad> and after the it comes up, i'd first reboor again
Nov 10 20:46:49 <voorstad> reboor=reboot
Nov 10 20:46:53 <brancaleone> by the way, is there a way to connect into dashboard from public wifi ?
Nov 10 20:47:29 <voorstad> If the issue persists, you'll need ssh acces anyway, so use the dev firmware
Nov 10 20:47:56 <voorstad> mmm, access to dashboard drom public wifi... never tried
Nov 10 20:48:18 <brancaleone> it ask for user/pass, but can't find the right username
Nov 10 20:48:19 <voorstad> I'd guess this is not possible
Nov 10 20:48:28 <voorstad> root / password
Nov 10 20:48:47 <voorstad> user=root, not fonero
Nov 10 20:48:47 <brancaleone> doesn't work
Nov 10 20:49:05 <voorstad> and your own password
Nov 10 20:49:15 <brancaleone> oh it's fonero actually, thanks
Nov 10 20:49:28 <voorstad> haha
Nov 10 20:49:34 <voorstad> it works?
Nov 10 20:49:46 <brancaleone> yes
Nov 10 20:49:50 <voorstad> dashboard access? ok
Nov 10 20:50:27 <brancaleone> yes, i see something strange, my connection type is "bridged". But it should really be "static"
Nov 10 20:50:56 <brancaleone> it make sense that i don't get dhcp in bridged mode, my adsl router doesn't do dhcp
Nov 10 20:51:07 <voorstad> yup
Nov 10 20:51:40 <brancaleone> i'll switch back to static and let you know
Nov 10 20:52:29 <voorstad> ok
Nov 10 21:07:26 <blathijs> voorstad: I think all dashboards are green since a while
Nov 10 21:07:27 <brancaleone> ok, everything is fine
Nov 10 21:07:50 <brancaleone> well sorry for the noise, it turned out that my isp is messing up his dns servers right now
Nov 10 21:08:09 <voorstad> ha, good to hear it's running fine now
Nov 10 21:08:25 <brancaleone> and for the "bridged type" i suppose someone messed up with the config without asking me :)
Nov 10 21:08:31 <voorstad> @blathijs: that's new then.
Nov 10 21:08:54 <voorstad> Only difference is SSH and 3rd party plugins then?
Nov 10 21:09:17 <blathijs> voorstad: I think that changed a few releases back, but I'm not sure
Nov 10 21:09:27 <blathijs> voorstad: And openvpn right now
Nov 10 21:10:37 <brancaleone> i had my fonera 2.0n since one year now, and i think the dashboard was always green
Nov 10 21:11:31 <blathijs> That was probably a 2.0g thing, then
Nov 10 21:12:24 <voorstad> Sorry for bringing it up....
Nov 10 21:13:26 <blathijs> No problem :-)
Nov 10 21:13:29 <brancaleone> voorstad: thanks again for the support, i'll now see why my isp is so bad today
Nov 10 21:13:36 <brancaleone> bye
Nov 10 21:14:08 <blathijs> voorstad: Indeed, thanks for helping out. It's a good thing that the IRC channel is getting a bit more active recently :-D
Nov 10 21:14:48 <voorstad> I'd wish Jazzyj would come here as well
Nov 10 21:15:00 <voorstad> i invited him already. You too I saw
Nov 10 21:15:47 <blathijs> Yeah, that would be nice. He's doing cool stuff, I'd like to hear his experiences with stuff like the fmg format
Nov 10 21:20:10 <voorstad> Well, if you concentrate on 2.3.7, he can do th coo stuf :-P
Nov 10 21:22:18 <blathijs> indeed :-)
Nov 10 21:24:36 * blathijs is gone again
