1st login site cannot be reached

[Mcsneezy]

I'm trying to set up proxmox for a home server, upon first setup I'm prompted to use my web browser to configure my server at https://192.168.100.2:8006/
Every time I've tried that link in a web browser on my laptop I'm returned with "site cannot be reached"

I tried following this help tutorial:
https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/f...i-in-a-browser.160091/#-problem-area-a-wiring
but i cant put in any code as i am stuck on the login so i just get "login incorrect"

Both my PC and laptop are hooked up to the router via ethernet
I have a Verizon FIOs router
running - ipconfig - on my laptop brings this
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : fios-router.home
Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::f815:2bfe:6077:f526%12
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.180
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1

my router Dynamic IPv4 Range is -192.168.1.2-192.168.1.254

This is my first time with Linux and proxmox and building a PC in any manner. So any explanations will probably have to be like they are given to a child.
Any help would be great

Hey,

when you install the PVE host you have to configure its IP address. What happened here is that the IP you have configured is not in the correct subnet, the configured IP is 192.168.100.2 which is in 192.168.100.0/24. But your LAN is 192.168.1.0/24. Given you didn't configure anything yet the easiest way forward for you is just installing PVE again. And making sure the IP you configure is on 192.168.1.0/24, also make sure the IP isn't already used on your network. Adjusting your routers DHCP range to something like 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.200 probably makes sense. So you can have all your static assignments >200 and you wouldn't have to worry about duplicates IPs on your LAN. Hope this makes sense


tldr; reinstall PVE, set IP in setup to 192.168.1.201 gateway and dns to 192.168.1.1, (optional) update router DHCP range to 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.200

That did it! Thank you very much. Great explanation
