Movie Streaming Home Network(offline) with Jellyfin
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hello,
I'm trying to setup a low-cost/resources movie streaming network without the use of internet. I have a EAP110-Outdoor and connected it to my laptop. I was able to setup the AP with my laptop but then if connect my phone or any device to the AP it has an error like that it hasn't have a valid IP or no assigned IP. And so I manually assigned the IP on my phone and I was able to connect to the AP but can't connect to my jellyfin server. I just wanted to use the laptop and AP for the whole network without using any router. Ethernet cable connecting the AP and the Laptop with jellyfin server running on it.
1) Is there a workaround for the AP to automatically assigned IP addresses to the clients without connecting the AP to a router, or do i have to run some dhcp server software on my laptop?
2) And how can I make the connected client connect to my jellyfin server?
3) Or do i really need to connect both laptop and the AP to a router/switch?
