Crap - network settings banged up

Post by Hammer »

Got the unit today, hooked it up to my switch and nothing worked. Ofcourse, damnit, old bubba caused a name conflict. Or so I thought. (You should really have thought the naming thru, this naming thing was SOOO not necessary.)
Powered down old bubba and hooked up the new again.
No go.

Then powered down B2 and connected it to the computer's LAN interface.
Worked.

Added user, checked network settings, set DHCP for LAN, switched back to static when realizing that was probably better.

Something FUBARed.

Now I can't access the device. Not by http://bubba, not by 192.168.10.1.

So I guess the only way is a total factory reset now?

If so, then: !"#¤%"#&#¤!!!!!

Hi Hammer,

Sorry to hear that you have problems with your Bubba.

Im not really sure what went wrong. To help you we need more info. Is it correct to assume this:

* You attached your computer to the lan-port on Bubba.
* Added a user.
* Went to network/lan and changed that to use dynamic IP.
* Pressed Update(?)
* Accessed bubba on the newly acquired address.
* Changed to static IP on LAN again.
* Pressed update(?) (Did you enable dhcp/dns server as well here?)

How do you try to access Bubba after this?

Lets hope we can find a solution. A reinstall seems a bit ti drastic.

Ok, so I did a clean install.

Now works (after doing Carl's workaround to get the sw updates).

Or, just got this;:

OK

Hi again Hammer,

What happend above is that the webserver got a timeout while waiting for the upgrade. (We have increased these timeouts in the upcomming upgrade to fix this)

Can you please just try to repeat the operation again and see if that solves the problem.
