MyBook Live Duo Causing "No Internet Access" Connection

SaphicDrmr · May 10, 2014, 7:37pm

Hi,

Many times, when I have my Live Duo on and connected to my home network, my various devices connect to it and my home network simultaneously. The Live Duo connection shows as a wirless network connection that is public with no internet access and it takes precedence over my home network, so I can’t get on the internet a lot of the time.

Any thoughts on how to keep Live Duo from showing up in my wireless network connection list and having my devices, such as laptops, connect to it?

Thanks,

Sher

The duo should NEVER appear in your wifi connection list.

Can you post a screenshot of what you’re seeing?

SaphicDrmr · May 10, 2014, 9:44pm

Here’s what I’m seeing. As you can see, it’s identified as “Unidentified Network”; however, since this was never a problem until I bought and connected the Duo, and the “Unidentified Network” goes away whenever I shut down the Duo, I must conclude the “Unidentified Network” is the Duo. As you can see, when this problem comes up, I’m also attached to my home network, but I don’t have internet access.

Are you using a static IP on your duo? Not asking you to change anything, just asking if you are.
If so, what address did you give it?

If not, what address does your router assign it via DHCP?

SaphicDrmr · May 11, 2014, 2:59am

It’s currently assigned a static address of 192.168.1.6. I was initially allowing the router to assign via DHCP, but I was having an even more consistent problem with the “Unidentified Network” conflict.

TonyPh12345 · May 11, 2014, 1:11pm

Ok, so when you’re seeing this “Unidentified Network” issue, open a CMD window on the PC and do

ipconfig /all

Cut & paste the output.

TonyPh12345 · May 11, 2014, 3:33pm

Try disabling IPv6 on your PC. The reason is unclear, but in your first entry, your PC has no default gateway or DNS server given by your router, and also has IPv6 active. In your second listing, it’s the opposite.

SaphicDrmr · May 14, 2014, 2:03am

I haven’t had any conflicts since I turned off IPv6, per your suggestion. I’m going to give it another couple of days of activity and then, assuming no more problems, I’ll accept your answer as the solution.

SaphicDrmr · May 14, 2014, 3:51am

I spoke too soon. I just got the “Unidentified Network” message with IPv6 disabled and the Duo connected. I thought you might want to see the ipconfig under these circumstances, too, so I’m providing it, just in case:

Your PC is losing the default gateway again (it’s blank).

The only (wild) guess I have is that your router is malfunctioning, perhaps due to a UPnP issue, when the Duo comes online.

What kind of router do you have? On a lark, try disabling UPnP on your router.

SaphicDrmr · May 14, 2014, 11:05pm

No laughing. I have a very old Netgear WGT624 v3. I disabled the UPnP so we’ll see how that goes for a couple of days.

SaphicDrmr · May 19, 2014, 12:58am

I am still seeing the no internet access issue. I had to turn off the Duo to get internet access.
