Re: Hub 4 in Modem Mode: IP address conundrum
Thank you for the explanation. The router is by QNAP (@legacy1 had also asked). So, would it be possible for the router to assign an IP to the virgin Modem / bridge? Currently it is as if the VM Hub is a non-entity in the QNAP network topology. Yet all connected devices get assigned an IP, right? Might the router have assigned the VM Hub with an IP? Why can't i see in the topology that ahead of the router there is this bridge or modem? If i did not know my set up and only relied on the schematics of the dashboard of the router, it is standing directly in front of the internet. Does the Hub cease all logging activity once in modem mode? I have always found its logs quite useful when it was run as the router and would like to accesss these again if possible. Also, i wanted to be able to monitor any cable signal issues and stay on top of any firmware updates. These are some of the reasons that i started trying to get to its dashboard in the first place. I must say, however that i used to have never ending problems before, with the Hub as router or with the Hub in modem mode and Netgear or Linksys various routers. This pairing now has been the most solid tried in the last three years or longer. So what is the social paradigm we can extrapolate from this situation? Do we learn from this, that the secret to a succesful working partnership is not collaboration but total dominance by one party that ends up taking over and denying the other partty its very own identity...!!! (lol) 😃 Thanks Thanks11KViews0likes2CommentsRe: Hub 4 in Modem Mode: IP address conundrum
Hi, I am reluctant to reset the system as it works fine. I wanted to find out what is the IP address of the VM Hub as its expected IP call as the modem is being used by the router itself. If, in the future, I need to reset the network, I will be sure to follow your advice. Thank you.11KViews0likes4CommentsRe: Hub 4 in Modem Mode: IP address conundrum
Thank you. No, I reconfirmed the router is not in AP mode. It serves as the DHCP assignor for LAN and WAN. Any chance it has taken over and assigned an IP to the modem itself? Would that be precedented? ...It is very strange no? The Hub is in sold green light. They seem to be working well together, I just do not know how to access the Hub. 192.168.100.1 is proudly answered by the third party router.12KViews0likes0CommentsHub 4 in Modem Mode: IP address conundrum
Hi, I am struggling to identify my Hub 4's IP address. The network is set up with the Hub in Modem mode. The third-party router, however, has claimed 192.168.100.1 for itself, and it consistently answers its HTTP call. I tried 192.168.0.1, and any obvious variation by the Hub is quiet. The network is quite stable, and the Hub is working fine. I looked into the router's WAN details, but it is not obvious what Hub's IP address is in its current state. I even tried connecting the computer with the modem via ethernet in case it forced it to respond to the usual IP call, but I am getting nothing. There must be a way of knowing what the Hub's IP address is in its current state, right:? Please help if you know. Thanks13KViews0likes14Comments
