The laptop should be *.1, and the gateway. So effectively, you're telling the beaglebone to be it's own gateway. In other words. Laptop: 192.168.7.1 Beaglebone: 192.168.7.2 So technically it does not matter which device gets what IP, but it looks like you have your system ip addresses confused. Which is why it's usually a good idea to have the "Server" be *.1. > > 3.
