Static Ip's and a machine that doesn't use DHCP

vampsthevampyre — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 08:32:52 GMT

I currently have a 2700hgv business hub with 13 static ip's. I wish to set one of these static ip's to point to a machine on our internal network, unfortunately this machine cannot be set to dhcp, and it does not show up in the wired connections screen on the 2700hgv.

Can anybody tell me how to setup the 2700hgv to point a static external ip address to a static internal ip address

Thanks in advance

You would need to ensure that the device is using an IP address within the range which the Hub is set up for. As a default, the hub's range is 192.168.1.xxx

It is possible to set up the Hub to use a different internal IP range.

the router is set to default 192.168.1.254

the machine is set to 192.168.1.71 wired (static ip address)

i can ping the machine from another computer on the network 192.168.1.15 wireless (dhcp)

i can set up a dns translation in the business hub and then ping its dns name from the above computer

what i cannot get the business hub to do is see the machine it only shows up the above computer and my iphone both wireless, it will not show the machine.

any help will be appreciated

So, you can't ping 192.168.1.71 from the Hub? How, exactly, is this device connected to the Hub? Also, are there any internal IP address conflicts?
