Solve : ssh into raspberry pi on via laptop on home network doesn't work?

Answer»

I am trying to ssh into my raspberry pi, which I have connected to my router/modem VIA an ethernet cable. I turned ssh on on the raspberry pi. It has LAN address 192.168.0.6. I tried to ssh into it via my laptop, which is connected to the internet via the same network, but that just hangs. When I ping 192.168.0.6 (my raspberry pi), I get an ICMP timeout. Does anyone know what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks! Quote

It has LAN address 192.168.0.6

What is the range of then router? I mean The IP range?

Is it from 192.168.0.50 thru 192.1680..99 or something like that? If so, the raspberry is outside of the range.

Not being able to ping it could suggest it is outside of the routers IP range.

This is a general computer FORUM. Probably not many people have one of these. You should ask on the dedicated Raspberry Pi forum:

Geek-9pm - The DHCP range doesn't matter in this case as the Pi has a static IP assigned so you ideally want it outside of the DHCP range.

Back to the original question:

What distro are you running on the Pi?
If you connect a monitor to the Pi, can you get out to the rest of the network from there?  Is the correct IP address indeed set?
You may want to check any firewall running on the Pi incase it is blocking incoming SSH connections.I am running raspian. I can connect to a monitor and wget files onto my pi. The ip address is set by the dhcp protocol by the router, correct? How could it not be correctly set?

OH, ok, I will check the firewall...you might be right about that.Idk why but all of a sudden my raspberry pi works....Thanks GUYS! Quote from: anon123 on October 08, 2013, 07:50:18 PM
