How to change Hotspot IP?


MadMax

Recommended Posts

I did enable Hotspot in armbian-config and that creates 172.24.1.1 for the WLAN adapter and 172.24.1.50 - 172.24.1.150 for DHCP.

I want to change it to 172.29.2.1

 

First thing i did was changing the dnsmasq.conf to:

interface=wlx647002073fb2                # Use interface wlx647002073fb2
listen-address=172.29.2.1                # Explicitly specify the address to listen on
bind-interfaces                          # Bind to the interface to make sure we aren't sending things elsewhere
domain-needed                            # Don't forward short names
bogus-priv                               # Never forward addresses in the non-routed address spaces
dhcp-range=172.29.2.50,172.29.2.150,12h  # Assign DHCP IP pool with a 12 hour lease time

But then i found out that the WLAN adapter still has 172.24.1.1

 

I can't find out how to change that. From reading around you should use nmtui or nmcli.

But nmtui does not let me save the change. It says: Unable to save connection. Connection is read-only.

 

With nmcli i get:

root@Portable-Grave:~# nmcli con mod wlx647002073fb2 ipv4 172.29.2.1/24
