gateway addres 169.254.29.193 instead 192.1681.1.
I attached my new GS108 switch but it connects to 169.254.29.193 on my ASUS gateway, instead of the correct address 192.168.1.1. How di i change this into the right address? Peter
- May 23, 2021I solved it by setting the gateway at 192.168.1.1 in the network adapter ip-settings, under Advanced.
Success.

it wont alow me to set that as a gateway but i can set the dns but it still wont resolve a "valid" IP
**edit** dns is configured to the original networks dns 192.168.0.1- tayderMay 24, 2021Aspirant
it seems could be an issue with the network card on the desk top i was trying to network it no longer works with a strait line either anymore but i plugged a few linux computers into the switch after strait cable didnt work and it gave them full network and internet access. thank you for the assistance but it seems the problem is on my end
