BE550 / BE9300 odd Lan Connection with Sky Q box
Hi,
I had my Sky Q box disconnect from my router this morning.
The box is connected via Lan.
Tried all the usual reboots on Sky box and router, entering Network setting manually, even tried to connect via wifi and so on, non of that worked.
I then got my old router (cisco) and plugged the Sky box via ethernet into the the cisco router, the Sky Box connected.
At some point when I plugged the sky box back into the TP-Link it connected!.
The Sky box at this stage was set to Automatic DHCP.
I checked the IP and it ended in .105, which was the old ip assignment from the cisco box.
This should not be possible because my range dos not include this. I then manually changed it to bring it in range and it will not connect.
Changing it back to the out of range number it connects. This does not make sense to be and afaik should not be possible.
Also to note under Advanced > Network
The client list does not show the sky box as being assigned an IP by the DHCP server.
But under the Network Map it shows up listing the out of range IP?
Does anyone have a clue what is going on.
Thank
