1437 I'm attempting to reinstate the ‘missing’ IP addresses using OMV-FIRSTAID.
It seems to have worked for ethernet (eno1) by simply answering ‘yes’ to all the questions it asks; I think previously I had said no, out of fear & uncertainty, so it didn't work (i.e. lost all the IP address stuff).
Trying it again for WiFi (wlo1) which has the extra steps of inputting the wireless network’s name & password) but not only has no IP address appeared, it also seems to have vanquished the eno1 IP address… zark.
Let's try the process for eno1 again.
Ok, that's back, and I can access it remotely with the new IP address. 192.168.1.223
Let's try some mad gibble: configuring wlo1 with the ethernet cable unplugged!!!1!
…nothing; still no IP address. Looks like we'll just have to continue with ethernet. Luckily I have all the cables everywhere.
…although replugging in the network cable and running ipaddr shows no IP address for eno1. Let's run OMV-FIRSTAID again.
Ok, that restores the IP address and I can access folders remotely again.
Tried configuring WiFi access via the web UI: still doesn't set an IP address. I think I can choose one manually, but it also asks for ‘netmask’ and I'm like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Next challenge: external HDD.
Just plugging it back in doesn't work (it shows up remotely (because it never left) but cannot be accessed). A system restart seems to sort it.
