MAX BR1 Mini Factory reset, LAN IP range changed. Manual DHCP reservation entered (reserving 192.168.2.10).
Then the device connects (windows PC on an Intel NUC) and this happens:
this is a problem while resolving the DHCP request. In this case you’ll get such a “APIPA” address. Is it possible that you have more than one network card in this Client? (I give the answer myself, yes, thats WiFi … you have LAN as well)
Maybe you can try in the cmd an “ipconfig /renew” or “ipconfig /release”
I have this problem often if change a few devices on my network-cable (e.g. to update all my demo-stuff)
OK, got to the bottom of this. This Intel NUC has a wired LAN port. The customer was then plugging that into a vonets wifi bridge which was spoofing the LAN mac over Wifi.
So I think the BR1 couldn’t cope with seeing the MAC on wired and wifi LAN and so crapped out leaving the NUC with an APIPA address when connecting via wifi.
Got them to statically assign the IP address and changed the DHCP range on the BR1 - job done. Thanks for your help.
