Still can't access default IP!

ChristopherGault

Hello, I am still unable to connect to the default address with the home version of XG Firewall. I have tried everything under the book and this is just a nightmare! It appears that the DHCP server during initial setup isn't working and my network (even IP scanners) can't find any live address of 172.16.16.16, it appears not to be broadcasting anything! If I hardline into the server that is running XG and set a static IP what am I supposed to do with Gateway and DNS? Also during first boot there were error messages containing to page cache, I dont know if thats a problem but I am sure having hell with this small mistake Sophos made...

    Hello all,
    Please add me to the list of the frustrated. I have installed the software and connected my laptop directly to the nic on the firewall. The DHCP server on the firewall has given my laptop the IP 172.16.16.17, so it is talking properly. I can ping 172.16.16.16 and I have added https://172.16.16.16 as a "Trusted Site".
    I am unable to access the firewall with either Chrome, IE or Edge.
    My BIOS clock it right to the minute with my laptop clock.
    Anyone have any further ideas?
