IP SubNet madness! Help ...
Hi all - I have a small office network ... 1 room, 2 computers (Macs), 2 printers, and an IPhone.
All connected via Fiber Modem (Arris NVG595) & separate WiFi router (ASUS TM-AC-1900).
For the past several months, I have been pulling my hair out, with printers "sometimes" seen my the Mac, Airplay printer "sometimes" being seen by the iPhone, etc.
Fortunately, I have the issue narrowed down to this (assuming this is the cause):
When one of my Macs/Ptrs is connected to the LAN via Ethernet, it uses the internal IP of 192.168.7.xxx
When one of my Macs/Ptrs is connected to the LAN via Wireless, it uses the internal IP of 192.168.29.xxx
(FWIW I only use band 2.4GHz. I have nothing using band 5.0 GHz).
Can anyone direct me from here? Do I need to have everything on the same subnet?
