At present I have a newly built HAOS server, running on an intel x86 chipset (i7 6700) and a pci-e wifi adapter card (AX201 chipset).
The HA instance is connected via wireless (ethernet not possible in it’s location in the house), and assigned a static IP (IP: 192.168.1.20/24 GW: 192.168.1.254/24).
I have it connected up to nabu casa, and externally I can access the GUI and it works completely fine. Most automations run, all dashboards load (but I do have various issues with Google cast speaker automations).
However within my home network, I cannot access HA via it’s assigned internal IP, I cannot ping it, and all ports are apparently closed… (when scanning the IP)
When logged in via the nabu casa remote link, and running an SSH terminal, I can ping the gateway from the HA instance, but no other IP in the network (192.168.1.0/24).
Right now i feel like this is an issue within the OS, but need some pointers/guidance on where I should be looking.
I haven’t ruled out the possibility this is an issue with my BT HomeHub Wifi, however no other device in the network experiences this issue, nor when looking at the HomeHub (limited) configuration is there any sign of blocked ports. Equally a blocked port/IP would stop access from the outside.
I don’t feel like I’ve found the root cause of the issue, but I managed to move one of the BT disc repeaters, which i discovered has an ethernet port attached, right next to the HA instance.
The HA instance is now connected via ethernet , and internal connectivity has returned to normal, but the instance is still essentially wireless to the rest of the house
Right now it can stay like that, but does highlight a very strange odd behaviour.
If such rulesets exist they are not accessible. The routers config options are fairly limited, due to it being an ISP provided home router.
It would seem a logical theory, but from everything that is accessible on the router, it’s an open internal network. Other than some MAC bound addresses that I’ve set it’s pretty much in stock factory mode.
I feel like I may have to live with not knowing for now. Maybe one day I’ll replace the routers….
Is this a typo or did you mean the plural here? And if intentional, do you mean you have multiple routers or access points? Having more than one router would mean you have multiple networks, because that’s what routers are for: routing between networks (plural).
