Re: Error Mac address and Ports

David_Antunes · ‎2019-04-13

Hello i have same manufacture bugs with my xr500.

The 1 is my MAC ADDRESS:

On the back of my router the mac end with :78 on my windows is the same

The 2 is my ports i have active port 4 and the led is on but in the duma os th uses port 1

Is the rest of the MAC address the same? I presume it's not and it shouldn't be. The last two characters not not enough to cause a problem. Only if the entire address is the same would it, however it shouldn't be.

Same as ...?

Nothing wrong:

The MAC address printed on the label is the one for the LAN interface, so the same .78 you see on the connected clients.
The MAC+1 is the Internet/WAN interface MAC address.

Current firmware?

You said printed and on Windows it shows :78 (this is the LAN interface MAC) while the :79 you see on the Internet screenshot is one higher as expeced - so again, perfectly right.

Was there anything specific you were trying to achieve here that we can help you with?

@Netduma_Jack the OP mentioned "The 2 is my ports i have active port 4 and the led is on but in the duma os th uses port 1" was this addressed by some firmware updates, or do we face early manufacturing units where the numbers/printing/LED don't match?

Netduma_Jack · ‎2019-04-15

@schumaku - thanks for clarifying. If it's an early unit, then the physical labels were incorrect,which may be the cause here.

@David_Antunes - what are you comparing the Device Manager port table to? The LEDs on top of the router, or the number of the port on the back of the router? Are they the same?

Also, how old is your router?
