**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Mar 10 02:59:57 2011 Mar 10 13:54:14 HI Mar 10 13:55:17 Is anybody there? Mar 10 13:55:58 Yes :-) Mar 10 13:56:36 Alright. I have some problems with the 2.0n and my external HD. Mar 10 13:57:20 I can see after I log in into the router, but I don't manage to do the same in windows explorer... Mar 10 13:58:32 I'm using the "network connection" wizzard. Station: Z, Map: \\fonera\Media Mar 10 13:58:59 And then it ask for a username and pw. So I enter: fonero and my FON-password Mar 10 13:59:25 I must be doing something wrong, since it doesn't work. Anyone? Thanks in advance! Mar 10 14:04:08 Does creating the connection fail, or does it just show up as empty? Mar 10 14:04:27 Where can you see the disks "after you log in into the router" ? Mar 10 14:05:45 Connection fails. Mar 10 14:05:50 In my webbrowser Mar 10 14:07:08 Any error message when the connection fails? Mar 10 14:08:26 (I'm translating from Dutch, so I'm not 100% sure it's right:) Network error: No entrance to \\fonera\Media Mar 10 14:08:44 Can't find network path Mar 10 14:09:06 Filz: In het Nederlands mag eventueel ook wel, hoor :-) Mar 10 14:09:14 Haha, oké :D Mar 10 14:09:55 But let's stick to English if possible, in case others want to read up :-) Mar 10 14:10:18 Alright, np. Mar 10 14:10:29 Can you browse to \\fonera in the explorer? Mar 10 14:11:12 No, I can't (forgot to mention it) Mar 10 14:11:38 How about \\192.168.10.1 (assuming that you're on the LAN or wifi network) Mar 10 14:13:14 Ahaa, I guess I know why this isn't working. I just remember I'm using my fonera in bridged-mode Mar 10 14:13:48 (so for the record: can't browse \\192.168.10.1) Mar 10 14:14:13 Hmm, I think \\fonera should still work in bridge mode (because it uses some WINS / Netbios broadcast thing, I think) Mar 10 14:14:22 how about \\ip.address.you.set ? Mar 10 14:14:31 (filling in the static ip, of course ;-) Mar 10 14:15:35 I've set it to 192.168.0.107, but also no luck so far Mar 10 14:16:00 Hmm, is file sharing enabled? (Under Settings -> Fileserver IIRC) Mar 10 14:17:29 "Windows Netwerk Omgeving", right? Mar 10 14:17:34 This is enabled. Mar 10 14:18:01 But is it possible I have to do something to make Samba work? Mar 10 14:19:40 That setting should enable samba Mar 10 14:19:50 Do you have a DEV firmware? Mar 10 14:20:09 I see. The weird thing is that I can connect to other pc's, but not to the fonera (in windows explorer) Mar 10 14:20:21 No, no DEV firmware. Just the regular 3.6.1 Mar 10 14:24:34 Hmm, samba (using smbclient from Linux, though) works for me in bridge mode Mar 10 14:24:40 so it's not totally broken, it seems Mar 10 14:26:36 Filz: Do you have a second PC to test with, to rule out issues with your client PC? Mar 10 14:26:41 Alright, good to know. I really don't have a clue what's going on here (altough I have to admit I'm not an expert at all) Mar 10 14:27:11 Alright. I will do that. 2mins! Mar 10 14:28:32 [and what's also weird: I can only access the router (via Myplace) from 169.254.255.1] Mar 10 14:32:53 Hmm, it is working on my other pc (WAN-connected) Mar 10 14:33:19 just entered the IP, and it worked fine Mar 10 14:34:01 [and what's also weird: I can only access the router (via Myplace) from 169.254.255.1] <-- You mean you need to use http://169.254.255.1 for the webinterface? Mar 10 14:34:11 But the problem is still there on my laptop, connect via Myplace Mar 10 14:34:13 Yes Mar 10 14:34:41 Hmm, can you check what IP address the laptop has? Mar 10 14:36:05 192.168.0.233 Mar 10 14:36:56 What Windows version are you using? Mar 10 14:37:20 Could it be that there is some local firewall (for example because the network is marked as a "public" network)? Mar 10 14:39:37 i'm using W7 Mar 10 14:40:09 Network is marked as "home" Mar 10 14:41:26 Can you ping the fonera using its 192.168.0.107 address? Mar 10 14:43:46 yes, without a problem Mar 10 14:45:57 What the... just de-activated my firewall, and now I can access my fonera :$ Mar 10 14:47:56 In order to use my firewall AND connect to the fonera HD, what should I do? Mar 10 14:48:09 Add the ip into my firewall, or...? Mar 10 14:48:57 What firewall is it? Standard Windows firewall? Mar 10 14:49:40 It's "PrivateFirewall" (same firewall is running on my other pc...) Mar 10 14:51:19 Sounds like some setting or firewall rule is messing up, but I can't really help you find it I'm afraid Mar 10 14:52:47 Alright, np. You already helped me a lot, thank you very much! Super bedankt! Mar 10 14:54:23 :-) Mar 10 19:18:58 hi there! probably my la fonera 2g was broken by a lightning. it's seems to work, but i can't ping 192.168.1.1 by ethernet, and there's packetloss in wi-fi. i tried to reset it from the button beneath it. I was asking if there are another way to fix it... **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Mar 11 02:59:57 2011
