[SoaS] wireless connection school server

[David Leeming]

Not sure if this is an SOAS or XS question or both! 

 

I am trying out a mixed environment with XO-1s and SOAS. 

 

The XOs are connected and registered on an XS with v 0.6. They connect to a
default network 172.18.0.0 wirelessly.

 

I have one PC netbook running SOAS 2 Blueberry. I can connect wirelessly but
it gives me a different network 10.42.xxx.xxx (or close). The wireless icon
on the SOAS shows me "connected to the school server" but I can't access any
resources or register etc.

 

I then found I can do a wired connection, which works fine. It connects on
the default 172.18.0.0 network and I can access the XS Moodle home page -
which requires a username/password. It won't let me in or register the SOAS
netbook until I created a user account using the admin XO. I had to manually
input the server qualified name in the control panel of the SOAS netbook,
and then I was able to register and collaborate with the XOs (i.e. with the
SOAS on a wired connection and the XOs wireless).

 

Is this correct or have I missed an easier way? 

 

What would I see if I had 2 or more computers running SOAS, connecting
wirelessly? Should they be receiving IP addresses in the default range
(172.18.0.0) or the other range I was observing (10.42.xxx.xxx)?
