Tuya / Lidl smart home devices don't work when connected to GS724Tv4
Hi All, Got a strange one here.... bought a Lidl smart home device and connected it via my switch. It's a rebadged Tuya device. When I search for the gateway, it eventually finds it, but it can...
do hyou have the dhcp server enabled on the smart switch?
What router is connected to the switch?
And what gateway/modem are you using?
DHCP on Netgear switch - No
Asus RT-AC88U with latest firmware - DHCP running there
Huawai Echolife HG612 modem
When I connect to RT-AC88U, the device works.
the Echolife HG612 also has an integrated router dhcp server.
Add in the asus and it can create a double nat.
Buy why would it make any difference? If I plug into the Asus port it works. The Asus is linked to the Netgear switch. If I plug into the Netgear switch it fails. What is the Netgear switch doing to the packets to stop it working?
Isn't double NATing a minefield. Would I set the HG to deliver just 1 IP in the pool - that of the Asus?
Would I set WAN-side address allocation as Normal or passthrough? At the moment, I have the Asus delivering x.x.x.4 to .250. It's on .3, with the HG612 as .1
This was how it was recommended on another board.
