<OffensiveUser> i've read of similar displays regulating to 5v somewhere inside

<interest1ng> hey, I am having a peculiar issue
<interest1ng> my network is unreliable on the rpi (2)
<interest1ng> internet completely stops working after a few hours
<interest1ng> but local network works :/
<ShorTie> yup, you can hook them up like this  https://www.dropbox.com/s/kpe5ek17e7e4fkf/IMAG0003.JPG?dl=0
<interest1ng> if i shutdown (and wait) i can usually reconnect to the internet
<interest1ng> could anyone tell me where i can start looking to troubleshoot

<ShorTie> wifi ??
<interest1ng> ShorTie: i am using a wireless bridged adapter, which works fine with other devices
<ShorTie> so wifi
<ShorTie> you need a ping script to keep it alive or try wicd-curses
<interest1ng> yes, but certainly no driver issues
<interest1ng> there are network applications running 24/7 on it
<interest1ng> that's how i know internet stops working ;0
<ShorTie> give wicd-curses a try
* druidd has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
<interest1ng> its a bridge, the raspberry pi is connected via ethernet to it
<OffensiveUser> so if I understand your connection is AP > receiving ap > pi
<interest1ng> OffensiveUser: yes
<interest1ng> it works fine on the old pi and on other devices
<OffensiveUser> and you can reach the pi from the first ap if internet gives out?
<interest1ng> OffensiveUser: yes, the pi can communicate with the local network. it's just the internet that does not work
<OffensiveUser> does restarting the network adapter on the pi do anything
<interest1ng> its strange: if i reboot the pi/the bridge, the internet doesnt work
<interest1ng> but if i shut down the pi and wait, say an hour, and boot it up again, it works
* Macuser has quit (Quit: My MacBook Pro has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…)
<interest1ng> what is extremely strange is that when the internet stops working on the pi, if a ping, it says the ping is "from" 192.168.1.9, when my whole network is on a 192.168.2.x subnet, and the pi is 192.168.2.115
<interest1ng> but i can still ssh into it
<OffensiveUser> hmm
<OffensiveUser> dhcp?
<Bilby> It sounds like the bridge may be assigning itself an IP address as well
<interest1ng> no, using static, so i can ssh into it
* eggy has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds)
<interest1ng> Bilby: hmm interesting idea
<Bilby> the pi is set up with a static IP - any chance it's within the DHCP range of the router and the router is handing the same IP to something else?
* mumixam has quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds)
<Bilby> what's the model on the bridge?
<interest1ng> bridge is a tp-link WR703N
<OffensiveUser> have you checked the settings on it
<interest1ng> it has been setup for over a year, and never failed me before
<Bilby> are you running openwrt on it?
* Logicwax has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)
<interest1ng> i havent touched the config of it for so long ;) but i believe it was running ddwrt
* Lartza has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
<Bilby> I wooooonder if something ended up turning on the dhcp server in it...
<OffensiveUser> I'd check everything from wall to pi and back again
<OffensiveUser> even if it's running for over a year
* Lartza (lartza@unaffiliated/lartza) has joined
<interest1ng> Bibly: however the ip address of the pi doesn't change, i can still ssh into it
<Bilby> interest1ng because it's static and just cross-routing on the tp-link
<interest1ng> i havent touched the bridge for so long, i forgot its ip :P
<Bilby> it would account for the out-of-range ip address, at lesat
<interest1ng> i dont even know if i CAN configure it if it is a bridge
<Bilby> Plug it directly into a computer and see if DHCP assigns an IP address?
<interest1ng> you might be right, there could be a conflict with the ips because of bridge
<interest1ng> dhcp will assign an address, because it did before, i just told the pi to use static
* Macuser (~textual@unaffiliated/macuser) has joined
<Bilby> take it outside the wifi network or turn wifi network off temporarily and see if plugging a cat5 between the tp link and a computer gives you a 192.168.2.* address ;)
* eggy (eggy@unaffiliated/eggy) has joined
<interest1ng> that's an interesting test
<interest1ng> so that will check if the bridge is trying to use dhcp
<Bilby> right
* n-st (~n-st@2001:470:7272:0:6877:a44c:5fba:9e9) has joined
<Bilby> if you get a 192.186.2 address you know the tp-link is handing them out like they're going out of style
<Bilby> then, get into it and make sure it's set to just do bridgework
<interest1ng> alright brb ;)
* interest1ng has quit (Quit: leaving)
* cceleri has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
<OffensiveUser> why not just get in the tp-link and check if the deamon is running
<Bilby> because he doesn't know if it's the problem and apparently doesn't have easy access
* x1337807x has quit (Quit: My MacBook Pro has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…)
<OffensiveUser> true
<Bilby> Also if he already has a dhcp address he's in the right subnet to connect to the config page or ssh in
* gbaman has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
* Moshin (~bangboom@udp000088uds.hawaiiantel.net) has joined
* Saphyel has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
<OffensiveUser> should tell him to jot down the ip of the bridge and tape it to the bottom of it for future reference
<OffensiveUser> probably needs a username and password too
<Bilby> yeah hah
* Adran (~adran@botters/staff/adran) has joined
<OffensiveUser> having used ddwrt i know this for certain actually
<Bilby> For that kind of thing it's a great solution
<Bilby> for more official applications i keep it in a password file ;)
<teclo-> OffensiveUser: I got a weird problem with my dd-wrt. My subnet is 10.20.*, but once in a while dd-wrt gives me an 192.168.1.2 address

 teamplayer techwave61 teclo- teepee teknic111 terrasapien
<interest1ng> my computer failed to connect to the bridge (because main AP was down) and there was no ip address assigned (so no DHCP)
<OffensiveUser> teclo-, you seem to be having a similar problem as interest1ng
<interest1ng> oh, i just connected, what is telco's problem
<OffensiveUser> dd wrt assigns an ip thats not in the subnet
* Guma (~Guma@mobile-166-184-168-170.mycingular.net) has joined
<interest1ng> the IP IS in the subnet
<Bilby> interest1ng hmm
<interest1ng> it stays as 192.168.2.115
<interest1ng> thats why i can ssh into it
<interest1ng> however INTERNET is not working. pretty strange issue.
<Bilby> yes
<interest1ng> and internet works fine, its after a few hours/days it completely stops working
<Bilby> that is pretty strange
<OffensiveUser> can you get into the main access point? maybe that'll list ips of connected devices
<interest1ng> and requires a shutdown, long wait, and boot
* Logicwax (Logicwax@c-50-161-23-192.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined
<Bilby> no way to swap out or bypass the bridge efor a little bit to test it?
<OffensiveUser> then you can trail and error until you hit the bridge
<OffensiveUser> check if it's running the dhcp deamon
<Bilby> it's pretty strange stuff interest1ng i'll give you that.  I had a somewhat similar problem at one client, it ended up being the stupid bloody SBC dsl box though
<interest1ng> OffensiveUser: as i noted previously, my computer failed to receive an IP from the bridge alone
<OffensiveUser> oh yeah
<OffensiveUser> sorry
<OffensiveUser> uh
<Bilby> sporadic IP issues are insanely frustrating to troubleshooting
<Bilby> interest1ng no way to run a cat5 all the way?

* Logicwax has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds)
<teclo-> well in my case ww-drt gives me an adress which is not in the subnet
<OffensiveUser> how do you have yours set up?
* Sonny_Jim has quit (Quit: leaving)
<teclo-> one subnet, 10.20.40.100 to 10.20.40.200
* mumixam has quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds)
<teclo-> and onece in a while it gives me 192.168.1.2
* Logicwax (Logicwax@c-50-161-23-192.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined
* ShorTie thinkz, but you don't get ip address from a bridge
* DLSteve has quit (Quit: Leaving)
<Bilby> all right lads, i'm off-shift, going to get a drink and have supper
<Bilby> ShorTie with dd-wrt you can
<Bilby> it's the meth of wireless device hardware
<ShorTie> don't think you can/should have 2 dhcp servers on a network
* Macuser has quit (Quit: My MacBook Pro has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…)
<ShorTie> or you shouldn't
<OffensiveUser> you can
<OffensiveUser> but you shouldn't
* Adran has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
<Bilby> that
<Bilby> it causess lots of problems
<ShorTie> i hear that
<OffensiveUser> hmm
<interest1ng> i'm honestly giving up trying to troubleshoot the bridge. i'll inconveniently connect the rpi directly to the AP for a while and see if it works
<OffensiveUser> hows the range on that ap set
<OffensiveUser> is your pi's address in range
* voxxit has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
