I P Conflict
Hi, After a power outage and reboot my duo is sending out 2 MAC address to the router which is causing a conflict. The router is an Asus RT- N56U and I am running the latest version of RAIDar. Any a...
Thanks for the reply, I must admit I am out of my depth with this bonding issue. The duo only has one ethernet port so I would assume this is not the problem?
I would a pretty comprehensive talk through to sort this out Im afraid
I agree. Sorry for bothering you. One of the Netgear Moderators might give it a try.
Worth a try and thanks for the input, as you suggest i`m hoping a moderator will pick it up
Can you clarify what is the problem exactly? You said that the NAS is sending out two MAC addresses on the network? Are they similar? Are the first 6 letters the same? Can you share the first 6 letters of each MAC address here?
If there are indeed two MAC addresses (which would be very surprising), then there would be two different IPs given by the DHCP server, so no IP conflict. Can you clarify what makes you think there is an IP conflict?
Can you tell us what is router telling you exactly? What is shown on RAIDar?
Hello,
To answer your requests in order,
The router shows two entries for the NAS in the client status, both of them show the correct name of the NAS, when you hover the mouse over the first entry it shows the correct MAC address ie the same as the sticker on the rear of the unit starting 00:24:B2:xx:xx:xx
The second entry shows a completly different MAC Address starting D8:D4:3C:xx:xx:xx
I am recieving emails from the NAS stating
MAC address D8:D4:3C claims to have our IP address (192.168.x.xxx) (duplicate IP conflict likely)
RAIDar is stating that the MAC address is the one starting 00:24:B2
Hope this helps in looking for a resolution
