View Full Version : LAN Connection without DHCP
Hi
I've tried to help someone connect via LAN on thier PIII, the issue is they are using a crossover cable, and obviously therefore are not having a DCHP IP address allocated as you usually would with a router.
I wondered if anyone else had attempted this approach as setting the IP address as static within the profilux application (via usb) yielded no results. I wondered specifically what default gateway/subnet anyone had used to achieve connectivity.
Thanks
Gary
yes that works, I just did one last night :)

Well, we tried to no avail. Any suggestions?
We have the networks bridged, but cannot get access to the network.

Did you use the static ip funtionality within the profilux software?
yes I connected via USB, set the IP, mask and gateway... saved assign a ip in the same class to the nic on the computer and connected teh cross over.

Remember to switch off ProfiLux and switch it on again after changing IP address

Did that...
ip of p3: 192.168.1.50
ip of PC: 192.168.1.51
mask: 255.255.255.0
gateway: 192.168.1.1
yes the P3 has to be powercycled
I got it to work!
I upgraded to firmware n, profilux control 5.0.10
Then inputted these settings...
ip of p3: 192.168.2.7
ip of PC: 192.168.2.8
mask: 255.255.255.0
gateway: 192.168.2.1
Bridged my wireless connection, and the lan connection...
restarted PC, and P3, VOILA!
I can access it from IE8 now. Now if only I can get it to work on my iphone! lol
Thanks to everyone for their input, but especially Gary. You tried to get it to work for over 2 hours, and I learned a TON watching you play with all the settings. Thanks again!
Lucky man! I still struggling to set it up externally:(
