Help please! No longer access to Meteohub directories

Post by WS Grave »

I have been fumbling around with PortForward and somehow the access to the Meteohub directories have been corrupted.

I can access the admin panel via 192.168.0.100 but when I go to network with the file explorer, then it sees Meteohub, but I can not open it. It says that it can't find the network path.

Please help!! Image


PS
I have the Meteohub connected to a Sitecom 300N ruoter. Should I add the Meteohub in the admin panel!?

Might be that your DNS entries are corrupt. Try to access meteohub directly by using the ip address instead of the name:
start - run:
\\\\192.168.0.100

Well, this proves that nothing is wrong with meteohub, it's the name to ip translation that is failing.

I don't know what your network setup is, most likely you have configured your router to do the DNS translation, or you might have an entry for meteohub in your hosts file.

If it is the router a reboot of the router might cure the problem. You can also try to flush the local resolver cache on your pc (ipconfig /flushdns).

YJB, guess what.
After using ip: \\\\192.168.0.100 a few times in the file explorer and in dreamweaver the original link seems to be allright again.
Don't ask me how or why.
It works again :D
