So I bought a server with a fresh installation of Proxmox and some VMs (1 of which is a licenced copy of WIndows 11).

It seems that the user that set it up for me had a network on 192.168.1.xxx
Because they told me to login to the web interface via 192.168.1.201:8006

Now my router (a fritzbox) gives IPs on the subnet 192.168.188.1
I can see the device on my router as 192.168.188.201... but
192.168.1.201:8006
or
192.168.188.201:8006
are both inaccessible

ping 192.168.188.201 or 192.168.1.201 is without success either.

I've read several forum threads and editted:

/etc/resolv.conf to read:
```
search fritz.box (instead of root-networks.com)
nameserver 192.168.188.1 (instead of 192.168.188.1)
```

/etc/network/interfacs
```
address: 192.168.188.201/32 (instead of 192.168.1.201/32)
gateway 192.168.188.1 (192.168.1.1)
```

/etc/hosts
```
192.168.188.201 proxmox-x14.fritz.box proxmox-x14 (instead of 192.168.1.201 proxmox-x14.root-networks.com proxmox-x14)
```
But nada...
Any more ideas/things I should change/try?
 
Nevermind... doing the above worked, during the permutation of things that I tried I accidentally disconnected the LAN cable.
