Access AirConsole from remote NW (Static CFG)

Hi,
I've got AirConsole set up statically on both sides of the house (No DHCP anywhere).

This means, I have been able to enter the gadget's IP address and net mask, but no gateway address. This worked fine when I was setting the thing up. But .. when I try to access the thing remotely (from another NW), I cannot. This is understandable, as there is no GW (route) specified.

Help!

Thank you,

Paul

I'm not sure of your exact network setup, but it sounds likely that you need to either:
- enter a default gateway on the LAN settings page
or
- enter a static route on the routing page

Thanks Daniel, wasn't sure whether that was possible as it's in a remote campus on a protected NW. That means I'll need access to the local NW (or its wireless of course).

I can ping it from a device on the same subnet (by hopping onto that device), but can't ping it from where I currently am. That usually indicates bad gateway information (or none).

Thanks again,

Paul
