Your home LAN is using their IP address ranges. This isn’t allowed and why PMS isn’t working right.

To make it all work right, you need to make your home LAN compliant with a real RFC-1918 “Private Network”.

This means something either in the 10.x.x.x/24, 172.16.x.x->172.31.x.x/24, or 192.168.x.x/24 ranges.

If everything is assigned an address from your router via DHCP, make the master change there and then restart everything to pick up their new addresses.

It will be messy but when done, everything will work.

Hello
it is not possible to claim the server with its sub-network. Use a subnet donate by ChuckPA

24

OK I will change my entire network IP and try it again then.

25

what is the default for the modem/router?

Most are in the 192.168.x.x block.

If it has a preferred default, I recommend going with whatever it recommends. Your ISP will have wanted it a certain way for some specific reason.
