Losing internet connectivity after restarting the server #342
Comments
@jvonau writes: Other than enabling wordpress from the gui and ICO [Install Configured Options], then the issues started... not really... Not sure if he changed the network role while in the gui cause the gui run does not provide a log file, and I forgot to ask for the /etc/iib/config_vars.yml file. As control test could you try selecting a different network mode and then ICO in the gui to see if that can break the current network routine? @holta writes: Should we ask him to avoid the GUI (Admin Console you mean?) for now? @jvonau writes: [Maybe] but functional testing should be performed on changing the network role from the GUI. If that change breaks the ansible run there is a usability issue that is difficult to recover from. Try changing the network role. There might be a bigger issue lurking underneath that [@kananigit] has bubbled to the top by a complete fluke. I'd try 'Appliance' to keep openvpn available if the run does succeed. But "Lan Controller" needs to be tested also. I had him run ["cd /opt/iiab/iiab; ./iiab-network"] twice and grabbed the logfile, and the networking blew up the second pass. |

so ./iiab-network run on my pi just made me lose access to my server all together. This is the point it says failed to start raise network interfaces just like it did yesterday. So now i have got no access to the internet and my iiab server. |
@kananigit asks over email if #182 ("unable to get static ip on debian 9") and/or hard-coding DHCP IP addresses into his home router (based on his RPi3 or Ubuntu machines' MAC addresses) are possibly relevant/necessary...to get him back on track with working Internet?? |
Brought over from xsce-devel as for some reason I can reply there any longer.

The last option above should prove or eliminate the home network as the source of the issue. From the description of the network that I uncovered during a voice call, perhaps a second router downstairs in between the main router and the problem rpi would be enough to see if the main router is affecting the rpi negatively. Now with the second router inline with the main one, there would be a different dhcp server serving the rpi, the results should differ as the rpi is not talking directly with the main router upstairs. |
Josh's cousin has the same ISP (CenturyLink) with the same Actiontec C1000A (DSL) router provided by this ISP/CenturyLink — so these are not fully independent tests FWIW :/ http://internethelp.centurylink.com/internethelp/pdf/modems/datasheet-c1000a.pdf |
Darn, that sucks, I can see the symptoms being the same in that situation.
Think the second router in-line might work, but that depends on the ISP's
equipment play nice with the second router. Even if a second router is used
but not jacked in the main network but connected to the rpi so the rpi can
grab an ip address from the test router should be able to (dis)prove the
theory while connecting to the rpi over the WiFi and checking what eth0 has
been assigned.

My comment in chat:

Obesrvations If Not Quite Conclusions:
|
Sounds like CenturyLink (ISP) and/or Actiontec (manufacturer of C1000A router) configure their DHCP more strictly than anything else we've seen. It would be lovely to know why — but in the interim, kudos to @kananigit who came up with this workaround (also for his cousin's home, and others in the same situation) getting folks back on their feet:
|
My next test would of been to # the 'require dhcp_server_identifier' option to the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file to see if that would eliminate the need for the second router. |
@kananigit can you please try the idea above?! |
@kananigit: can you possibly give @jvonau's /etc/dhcpcd.conf idea above a quick shot in the coming week? |
Sure Adam. I will test Jerry's after the weekend . Went to San Francisco
for a little vacation, will be home tomorrow night.

I commented the 'require dhcp_server_identifier' option to the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file and used my main router but it was not able to fix the internet issue unfortunately |
Good data point anyway, thanks for taking the time to try.

Resolving for now given we found a workaround. Please re-open as nec! |

@jvonau helped a TON during a live call yesterday: anything else I/we need to add to the ticket?
