I wouldn't trust a Windows host with two connections on the same
subnet (Wifi and Ethernet) to operate correctly.
Dear Simon,It seems as though 192.168.1.107 is for the Ethernet, and 192.168.1.99 is for the wireless interface. The 192.168.1.71 (Ethernet) address is listed with a prefix length of 32 instead of the usual 24; maybe this is the difference? As for the wireless interface, I can only see one IP address so maybe there were only three in total.If you have one host with two interfaces, both UP, on (different?) 192.168.1.0/24 networks this has to be a recipe for trouble.Not quite, it's one host with two interfaces, on the same 192.168.1.0/24 network, one interface with an extra address on a 192.168.1.0/32 network which doesn't seem to exist anywhere else. And that extra address has itself listed as its broadcast address.I think we've reached the point of "stop doing that", or supply a network diagram and explanation for why you think this should work at all.In all seriousness, stop doing what? As far as I'm aware, it should be possible to have two interfaces to a host (at least on the same 192.168.1.0/24 network, which they are). The existence of that extra address stumps me though. I've attached a quickly drawn diagram of the entire network in this house; there are, very occasionally, additional Wi-Fi devices connected but these don't seem to be related to the issue. All the Powerline <-> Ethernet adapters are of the same model. As always, thank you for your help; best wishes, Sebastian -- - Freenode: 'seabass' - Matrix: '@seabass:chat.weho.st'
