192.168.31.78/24
Network: 192.168.31.
Host: .78

#

There are four octects (bytes) in an IP(v4) address

dapper vapor
#

first is always 192?

hollow dawn
#

The netmask, /24, defines how many bits are the network address

dapper vapor
hollow dawn
#

Most home networks use 192.168.x.0/24

#

Where x is something from 0 to 255

dapper vapor
#

like rgb

hollow dawn
dapper vapor
#

thanks for explaining

hollow dawn
#

Well, you're going to go nowhere fast if you don't understand what's going on shrug

#

There are lots of good guides out there on how this all works

dapper vapor
#

so I connect my laptop with a router and change stuff there?

hollow dawn
#

Is the router also your WiFi?

#

Is there only one router?

dapper vapor
#

No

#

It's a xiaomi router that gets signal and makes it stronger

hollow dawn
#

Oh... god

dapper vapor
#

problem?

hollow dawn
#

Well, this explains why you've got problems

dapper vapor
#

can this be fixed without removing neither router??

hollow dawn
#

Depends on how you've got it set up, and what the options are

#

Beyond my ability to help you with

dapper vapor
#

ok

hollow dawn
#

You'll probably want to provide all the details back in #general-archived and hope somebody can help you un-fuck it all

dapper vapor
#

but is it possible to change router's ip address?

hollow dawn
#

Sure... and that's not going to help

#

It may just break everything

dapper vapor
#

um

#

that's some bad news

hollow dawn
#

You need to find out how to stop your "booster" from creating a separate network

dapper vapor
#

Ok

#

Well

#

I'll try

#

If I change this will this work?

hollow dawn
#

I've already answered that above

#

If you change it to the same as your wired network then shit's just gonna break

dapper vapor
#

I think I have the solution

#

I'll connect it via lan cable to booster

#

because lan outlets in my house are all connected to that main router no device is connected to

#

that could work right?

hollow dawn
#

You may need to connect it to the LAN port on the booster, and ensure the booster is in AP (Access Point) mode

dapper vapor
#

I think it is

#

I'm sure it is

hollow dawn
#

Well.. if you keep getting IPs in the 192.168.31.x range then it isn't

dapper vapor
#

becuase every device is 192.168.31.x, so if I connect rpi to it than it would detect all

hollow dawn
#

HA is on 192.168.1.8

#

You want everything to be on 192.168.1.

#

Or.... just stop using the fucking reply button

dapper vapor
#

Instead of changing everything to 192.168.1 can I just move HA to .31?

hollow dawn
#

Sure .... by making it all a single network

#

If you just blindly change IPs then... again ... that's not going to work

dapper vapor
#

one IP, just HA

hollow dawn

Good luck
