You and I made this examination just for tests to see if your netPI is working like it should and now based on your screen shot I can confirm your netPI is operating 100% fine.Hi Armin,
So if now in your network a DHCP server exists it will respond to netPI's "DHCP discovery" message with a "DHCP offer" message. But I cannot see this message in your screen shot.
Please have a look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Ho...n_Protocol to understand how DHCP messageing works and now netPI will get its IP address.
To your question: "Can I access to the webrowser by connecting the netPI and my notebook with an ethernet cable or do I have to add a router in between them?" . This will only work if your notebook operates also as DHCP server, if not, netPI will never get an IP address and https://NTBxxxxxxxx will never work. In other words I assume you will need a switched network in beetween Notebook and PC where an additional DHCP server is connected to and running (like a fritzbox for example).
Yup, I tried a switch and it works.Thanks!
Thank you very much!
