metalayer Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Mark IV Software version - whatever it ships with currently, purchased a month ago OS - win7 Ping Results - Pinging 127.16.42.1 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 127.16.42.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 127.16.42.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 127.16.42.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 127.16.42.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Ping statistics for 127.16.42.1: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms ------- Hi, bought a mk IV pineapple from the hakshop. Received and began testing, failed to get tethering set-up with an htc one x but could access the pineapple's web interface without problems via wifi on a friends mac running snow leopard. The next day I tested on my windows 7 laptop and could not connect via ethernet or wifi. The pineapple is broadcasting but windows fails to identify the network and cycles through failed connection attempts. Ping response is fine. I think the problem emerged after I tried to connect to the pineapple before the wps light had stopped flashing. I've since read on these forums that this can cause problems. Is this the cause of my connectivity problem and is there anyway around it apart from flashing the unit? I don't really want to buy a usb to serial cable unless there is no other option and I've already tried the reset button. BTW the manual should really include information about the correct bootup procedure! Thanks Quote

Mr-Protocol Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Double check your network settings, Do not let your windows machine DHCP, make it static 172.16.42.42 with no gateway inputed. I had that issue on my xubuntu which was driving me nuts because the network manager was taking control. Quote
metalayer Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 Network settings are all as you've described. Any more solutions other than paying for a usb to serial and flashing? Quote
TheLaughingMan Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 check with ur firewall could be blocking the connection... try to set it was to alow 172.16.42.1 to 172.16.42.500 range and see if this works Quote
loozr Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 check with ur firewall could be blocking the connection... try to set it was to alow 172.16.42.1 to 172.16.42.500 range and see if this works OT but why would you set firewall to allow 172.16.42.1 to 172.16.42.500 when there are only 255 addresses?

barry99705 Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 OT but why would you set firewall to allow 172.16.42.1 to 172.16.42.500 when there are only 255 addresses? It would fail anyway. Even Windows is smarter than that! ;) Quote
PineDominator Posted October 5, 2012 Posted October 5, 2012 I had to click an option in my av "avast" to allow ICS Quote
khaotic57 Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 i just recived my pineapple today and it is doing the same exact thing. have you found a solution? Quote
omfgplz Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 Solution: Dont connect your PC to the LAN port on the Pineapple. Connect PC->PoE port instead Quote
