My network is on 192.168.1.x. His is 10.0.1.x (Apple TC). I pick up 10.0.1.35 and more or less can’t connect to the net.
I manually set my IP to 192.168.1.x and all gravy. Back to DHCP and look… I’m not Jim. My neighbor is Jim. https://t.co/Nbhqyi8MRR
My firewall settings, such as they are as provided by ATT’s router, look like everything is locked down. Any thoughts? 😀
Best I got is my @ATTCares router is set to be a DHCP relay agent and, somehow, my neighbor’s TC offered faster than my own router.
While his router is too set to be a DHCP relay agent? I suppose. Never needed to care this much about DHCP.
I’m back to square one. When I’m on my neighbor’s subnet, I have TWC external IP.
My Mac (wires or wireless), my Android, a Netgear (wired) router, wife’s Mac. I can switch between TWC & ATT by manually setting IP.
Just wireless, I could, in theory, say my neighbor has a AP with the same SSID/key as mine. But the wires router throws that out.
The only thing… We’re part of a research study that records power usage, sends it over electrical to an Ethernet. Could that be bridging?
For those following along at home, this seems to be it. The @pecanstreetinc decide apparently can serve as a bridge between me and nextdoor.
And @pecanstreetinc knows about it. They can come out to fix. Taking deep breaths before replying. Why is security not default?
