I tried the cure --
downloaded Debian 8.6 2016-11-06 4GB SD LXQT and installed it in eMMC.
It works so far --
i.e., after convincing Win7 to share through the 192.168.7.1 gateway and
setting up nameservers and ntp,
*) I can access the BBBW through its USB, its RS-232, and its WiFi
ports, all at the same time,
*) I can ping 8.8.8.8 and www.google.com, and
*) the time is correct.
What I would like to do now is get rid of the 192.168.7.1 gateway and go
directly to the 192.168.1.1 that all my other computers use. As far as I
can tell, this means that the BBB WiFi subnet should not have IP addresses
192.168.8.x but 192.168.1.x. But I cannot for the life of me figure out
where the 192.168.8.x addresses come from. Are they assigned by some DHCP
server? Not one of my existing ones, for sure. The closest I can come is
/opt/scripts/tools/developers/nfs-rsynch.sh
but I don't know if that's really involved nor what I should do to it. And
if I did do something, how I would invoke it without restarting the BBBW
(and chance losing connectivity altogether).
[Aside: I found file above using
find / -name '*.sh' -exec grep -H '192.168.0.' '{}' \;
which I tried for *.sh and *.conf and *.xml -- with various interesting
results.]
** So here's my question:** How to make the WiFi on the BBBW have a static
address, e.g. 192.168.1.88, every time it starts, so I can have it provide
a web page to the outside world (using Port Forwarding on my router).
Many thanks for the posts so far and for any further help.
Richard
