[SOLVED] Unable to get internet connection on fresh Proxmox install

[LordNaut]

I had a similar issue, the server would get an IP, after looking in

/etc/network/interfaces

it became clear the the interface name changed from `enp8s0` to `enp6s0`, not sure how that happens, but just sharing my findings almost 2 years later..

Hey guys, I'm new here and I successfully installed proxmox on Lenovo ST250 V2 server. I reinstalled it a few times following the advise indicated in the comments. Here is the results of my windows machine I'm using to help configure the server nearby. I ran

ipconfig/all

to get the IP addresses here's the results.

I also read that there may be issues connecting over wifi hence I inserted a CAT 5E cable from the server directly into my access point (TP Link). Still cannot access the GUI using the configured IP address.




I'm new to this hence please explain in a simple step by step manner how can I properly configure proxmox and connect to the GUI? Feel free to explain it like to a 5 year old as I'm new to networking in general (some basic IT background knowledge).

Thanks in advance!

I'm able to login to the proxmox CLI and I tried running some of the commands to install apache and otherwise see my network config file but to no avail.
