jjmc7 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I am attempting to update my new Pineapple Mark IV. I am able to connect when i do the following configuration: 1. Connect laptop to internet via ethernet, share that connection to wifi adapter 2. Connect wifi to the pineapple network 3. browse to 172.16.42.1:1471 However, when i go to update, it says not to use wifi. So i attempted connect the opposite way listed below: 1. Connect laptop to internet via Wifi, share that connection with ethernet 2. Connect Pineapple to laptop via ethernet 3. browse to 172.16.42.1:1471 - i get nothing Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwistedPacket Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 What IP address do you have on your computers nic? You need to make sure its 172.16.42.42 And plugged into the LAN port not the POE port on the pineapple. -Tp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap_Sig Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 are you connected to the POE LAN port on your pineapple? If not you may try that. Also make sure your ip address is static 172.16.42.42 netmask 255.255.255.0 and DNS 8.8.8.8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjmc7 Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 I am plugged in via LAN and have the static info set as directed in the manual. I will try the POE port now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjmc7 Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 When i connected to the POE port it worked perfectly. Thank you TRAPMAN16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
