Why do I have 2 IP addresses on my wifi?
Routers are special because they have two IP addresses. This is the side of the router that faces the Internet and has a public IP address. The second router interface is called the LAN (Local Area Network) interface. This is the side of the router that faces the home network’s computers and has a private IP address.
Are two IP addresses on the same network?
This means that, in order for devices to be on the same network, the first number of their IP addresses has to be the same for both devices. In this case, a device with the IP address of 10.47. 4.3 is not on the same network, because the first number of its IP address is different.
What does it mean when your router has two IP addresses?
Each device connected to the local network has its own unique local IP address. When a device on your local network wants to communicate with a device on the internet, it is the router’s job to “translate” between the two types of addresses. In fact, that’s what it’s called: Network Address Translation, or NAT.
Can you connect to the Internet with two IP addresses?
That’s where this tip comes in. By configuring two IP addresses on a computer, I can connect to it, that is, if I am on the same subnet or VLAN. That way I have the best of both worlds — my regular IP address to access the internet or email and an IP address in the same subnet as the factory IP address.
Where does my IP address come from on my WiFi?
For some reason 4 of the 28 devices connected wireless are receiving an ip address of 192.168.2.x and I cannot figure out where these IP addresses are coming from. We haven’t used up our leases on IP addresses, I have deleted all of the leases and they still pull the 192.168.2.x ip.
Why do I have two MAC addresses on my WiFi?
Unless devices have static IP addresses, they will pick up on any avaiable IP in your list. The only way that would make sense is if the Air carried two seperate Wifi modules; one for 2.4Ghz and one for 5Ghz.
