If it is a router with web configuration you should be able to see what IP address it has assigned to the BBBs.
Alternatively if you have a Linux/Unix system of some sort on the LAN then install arp-scan and run "arp-scan -l" and it will show all IP addresses on the LAN. It should then be fairly easy to work out the addresses of the BBBs. -- Chris Green ยท -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
