5.7 The eBlocker completely stopped operating
Please make sure to activate your DHCP server.
Remove your eBlocker from your network and disconnect the eBlocker from the power supply. Now
remove all other devices (your computer, notebook, smartphone, etc.) from your network and connect
them again to update the DHCP lease. You can also update your DHCP lease for most of the
devices, in the network settings. Your devices are now connected to the Internet again.
Remove the network cable from your computer and deactivate the Wi-Fi, if needed. Connect the
eBlocker with the network cable to your computer and connect the eBlocker to the power supply. Now
wait for 5 minutes. Call the emergency-IP of the eBlocker:
http://169.254.94.109:3000
to get to the
eBlocker settings.
Go to „Network“ and set it to „automatic“. Save the settings afterwards. The eBlocker might reboot
now. Wait for the reboot and go to the eBlocker settings again. Click on „system“ and shutdown your
eBlocker. Remove the device from your computer and from the power supply. Don’t forget to
reconnect your computer to the network and/or to reactivate your Wi-Fi. Now connect your eBlocker
to your router and to your power supply again.
