Static IP Adderess

Added by Anonymous about 10 years ago

Hi,

I tried to set a static IP address to the system, by changing the /etc/network/interface file (See below). Because we want to communicate it directly via ethernet without the USB cable.

The issue is that having assigned IP addresses to both the PC and the Mity, we can ping the Mity from the PC but not ping the PC from the Mity.

PC static IP is 192.168.2.13
Mity IP is 192.168.2.12

Any ideas?

Hello Jack,

Is your PC a windows machine? If so I believe if you have the firewall on then it will block any ping requests. So if you disable your firewall on your PC then that might solve this issue. Let me know how it goes.
