InitialSettings

back to WiaNa

initial wiana settings
* register with WiaNa * ssh to the access point * change my ssid in wiana and connect to it from laptop

If the Router does'nt allow traffic
* Does Wiana show the node as "Node Certificate Live" - look on the "Manage" page in Wiana * SSH into the node, try the following commands * CheckUplinkValidity - should say "OK" * GetAndVerify test - should say "WIANA REACHABLE" * ping  * ifconfig eth0 - and then ping the IP address listed next to "inet address" * does the inet address match the IP range of your DHCP server? * e.g. my DHCP is at 192.168.7.1 and my node gets 192.168.7.250 * ReporTer * check if you have a "nickname" starting 1.x.x.x - see alias * does it say searching for gateway ?

On your Windows machine
* On your laptop, open a DOS prompt or check the Status (and Support tab) on your LAN connection icon. * In DOS type "ipconfig" Look for your Default Gateway address. In the DOS prompt try pinging the gateway address. * Next open a web browser and enter http://192.168.x.1/ where 192.168.x.1 should be your GatewayNotes address. * You'll get the splash screen. * If IP address starts with 169 then you haven't connected to the node.
