Hi,

My ISP has given me the following Static IP details below.
When I configure it on my local machine it works. But when
I try to configure it on MN-500, it keeps complaining
about IP mismatch at the Gateway Address and does not let
me 'Save' the IP address.

Is there a way to force set the Static IP ?

The details are
IP: 192.168.1.106
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.0.1 <-- Different Subnet than the IP
DNS: 192.168.0.1


Thanks!

Regards,
Saurabh Nandu

Huh?

Typically, ISP issue "public" IP addresses to customers. It's not unheard
of - yet still unusual - for an ISP to give you a "private" (i.e.
non-addressable) IP. Are you sure you have this correct? Do you know if
your ISP is doing NAT or something on their end?

The problem is that the MN-100 & MN-500 can not have there IP address be
on a different network then the default gateway. You IP address is on
the 192.168.1.* network while the gateway is on a different network, the
192.168.0.* network. The only solutions are the following.

1) Change ISP's
2) Get a different router & put the MN-500 in bridge mode
3) Have your ISP change it so that your gateway is on the same network
as your IP address

Those are the only options I see for you. I am assuming that you have
told us the truth about your IP address & subnet mask.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. My ISP delivers internet through
his local cable network. SO he uses NAT at his end to
provide Internet Access.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. The IP's are correct!
So I guess I'll have to try to get my ISP to change the
IP's
