Network troubleshooting

Rule #0: do not turn off DHCP in your router until your HDA has full network connectivity

Your HDA should be capable of browsing all the major sites and http://www.amahi.org before doing anything else upon first boot.

If that is not the case, you may want to check that the settings that you programmed in amahi.org for your network and router match that of your actual network and the router in it. Amahi assumes a regular, typical home network.

Steps in network troubleshooting:

From your hda itself (via ssh or at the desktop in a terminal), can you:

1. ping hda (this ensures the dns server is working)
2. ping router (this ensures your HDA can see the router)
3. ping 68.180.206.184 (this ensures you can see the rest of the world)
4. ping yahoo.com (this ensures your dns server can see the world)

If the above does not work, try and fix it with double checking the settings.

If the above works, then move to one or more the clients:

1. ping hda
2. ping router
3. ping yahoo.com

then report where you are in that list.
