Setting up NetdumaR2

[Camg87]

It's been a while since I've used it, but just on setting it back up and I haven't a clue what I'm doing? I've watched YouTube videos, followed guides etc but can't get it working.

I've connected the netduma to my virgin router via ethernet, fired up the netduma, then the next step is that netduma should show as a network to connect to? 

 

Any help would be appreciated

If you're going to connect to it via WiFi then it will appear as a WiFi network (NetdumaR2) or as whatever the name was that you previously set. If you're connected to it via ethernet then you're already connected to it, you don't need to do anything there. Once connected you can access the interface by going to http://192.168.77.1 in your web browser. You may or may not need to complete the Setup Wizard when you first access.

I've connected the netdumaR2 to my virgin router via ethernet cable, plugged my Xbox into the netduma....

The only WiFi network that is showing is the virgin media one, trying to connect to 192.178.77.1 doesn't work.

I've tried holding reset on the netduma too

Do you have a PC you can connect via ethernet to the router? If you haven't done the reset correctly then it may be showing as the previous WiFi name. Hold the reset button for 30 seconds, release, wait 4 minutes then try accessing

Yeah I could connect to the laptop via ethernet.

So connect the netduma to do the virgin, then from the netduma to the laptop?

[Netduma Fraser]

Yes that's correct, then try accessing with the URL I provided

Nah, the pc says 'ethernet not connected' I've tried all ports on the R2, there's nothing wrong with the cable, it works fine from the virgin router to the pc

While connected to the router via a wired Windows PC, open command prompt, type ipconfig press enter and then post a screenshot of the results here please.

I ordered the R3 last night mate, I couldn't be bothered with the mess on 😂 I'll just wait for that coming

Ah fair enough, should be much better!
