Hello, With wifi antena I receive a (rather weak) signal that connect my computer to internet. I have to use windsurfer antena booster (http://members.multiweb.nl/schaaijw/windsurfer_wifi_en.pdf) to get usable signal. So my computer have internet signal from wifi antena - yay great thing :)
Now I also want to connect to internet with my mobile phone! So I got a wifi router (Mi Router 4C made by Xiaomi) (web site https://www.mi.com/global/product/mi-router-4c/ documentation https://manuals.plus/_mi/mi-router-4c-manual) As it turn out I am not so bright to make this whole setup working :( I pluged in new router to power and connected ethernet cable from my computer to router WAN connection. (I belive this is how it should be connected togheder) >From now I had some partial successes and whole lot of problems. I will describe what I tried later, but I would like to ask you now How do I proceed from now on to set up router? I tried lot of setup and none worked. Here I will describe one that i hope should work - but does not :( While I was seting up router as described in https://manuals.plus/_mi/mi-router-4c-manual in Step 2 (point 3) it said I do not have internet. So I choose to manualy set up 'Static address' for router as folows (my computer has IP address 192.168.231.3): IP address: 192.168.231.5 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 Default gateway: 192.168.231.3 DNS: 192.168.231.3 After all this setup I could issue those commands on my desktop: (this is my desktop IP address - just to show it works) boza@redmoon:~/work $ ping 192.168.231.3 PING 192.168.231.3 (192.168.231.3) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 192.168.231.3: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.074 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.231.3: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.058 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.231.3: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.058 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.231.3: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.048 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.231.3: icmp_seq=5 ttl=64 time=0.058 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.231.3: icmp_seq=6 ttl=64 time=0.048 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.231.3: icmp_seq=7 ttl=64 time=0.058 ms ^C --- 192.168.231.3 ping statistics --- 7 packets transmitted, 7 received, 0% packet loss, time 6123ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.048/0.057/0.074/0.008 ms (this is new router IP address) boza@redmoon:~/work $ ping 192.168.231.5 PING 192.168.231.5 (192.168.231.5) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 192.168.231.5: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.445 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.231.5: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.381 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.231.5: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.384 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.231.5: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.360 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.231.5: icmp_seq=5 ttl=64 time=0.376 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.231.5: icmp_seq=6 ttl=64 time=0.403 ms ^C --- 192.168.231.5 ping statistics --- 6 packets transmitted, 6 received, 0% packet loss, time 5107ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.360/0.391/0.445/0.027 ms So ping work as expected but when i look on my mobile phone and connect wirelesly to router and on phone I look with browser at address 192.168.31.1 (this is addres router is using when i look from phone) it show me that I can connet from mobile phone to router (with green line on the picture it shows) but I can not connect to internet (it shows red line from router to internet) I hope someone will be able to give me some hint how to solve this issue and be able to connect to internet from router - and connected phone.
