My LAN Setup has 51 devices configured in it. (I am a bit OCD about wanting to "know where things are.") I just checked, and this instant I have no devices in the DHCP 'pool' at all.

The log file seems to indicate that the DHCP server keeps offering 192.168.1.184 to the ubuntu machine, and it never accepts the offer.

i.e.

Discover->Offer

Back in the first post, I saw "If I use fixed IP (on my laptop for example) I can connect and have internet, but I can't comunicate with other devices, por example NAS server! Btw the NAS Server is connected to another satellite!"

Is this a 'fixed IP' as in a static IP set on the device itself. or is it an IP set up in the reservation table?

Hello,

Sorry my delay answer you and give more infos to try help me find one solution.

I put the wireshark and one draw of my equipments layout (I'm sorry about my rudimentar draw, if you have any any doubts please be my guest to question.

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IOmjFNZrlysAc9xsiP1quwXfb8HPN3HW?usp=sharing

I have done the wireshark capture in one laptop with DCHP and I'm connected to device 1 (check the draw to understand the numbers), I can hadle with all my devices that are in device 1 and device 2, but I can't access to the devices that are in device 4.

I opened a device that I have access to in the browser and pinged and tried to access a device that I do not have access to via RDP.

I think you can check the IPs on capture,
192.168.1.21 with access
192.168.1.186 no access
192.168.1.2 no access

I don't have any equipment connected to satellite 3, this has the objective of intensifying the signal between 1 and 4

I hope it helps.

Thanks
