Good afternoon,
I want to attempt combining two networks utilizing Ubuntu (Ubuntu 16.04). Extra particularly, I’ve a DJI Tello drone, which generates its personal Wi-Fi entry level, and subsequently the units linked to its personal Wi-Fi entry level can solely management the drone. Nevertheless, what I want to obtain is to attach this drone through Ubuntu as a bridge to my router, in order that I can management the drone from different units linked to the router, or utilizing public IP by port forwarding.
This is the present configuration.
Drone’s entry level (IP and settings can’t be altered) – wi-fi connection to Ubuntu (Blue line within the diagram)
- Drone’s tackle: 192.168.10.1
- Ubuntu’s tackle linked to the drone: 192.168.10.3
- Default route from Ubuntu’s aspect: 192.168.10.1
Router’s entry level (IP and settings might be altered) – wired connection to Ubuntu and wi-fi connection to different units (Purple line within the diagram)
- Router’s (configuration web page) tackle: 192.168.10.100
- Ubuntu’s tackle linked to the router: 192.168.10.51
- Default route from Ubuntu’s aspect: 192.168.10.100
If I can entry the drone with its IP 192.168.10.1 from one other units linked to the router, I suppose I also can do port forwarding or DMZ from the drone’s IP to the general public IP, in order that I can entry drone additionally from the exterior web.
What I’ve accomplished
I’ve put in the bridge-utils
bundle to the Ubuntu, then arrange the bridge interface because the above configuration through GUI. Nevertheless, until I manually modify the metrics for the drone’s wi-fi connection decrease, I couldn’t ping to 192.168.10.1 (drone). If I modify the metrics worth, then I may ping to each drone (192.168.10.1) and router (192.168.10.100) efficiently. Sadly, once I tried to entry the drone with its ip 192.168.10.1 from the opposite system connected to the router (MacBook), it says that there isn’t any path to host.
For the reason that last aim is to entry drone from the exterior web, I might be glad to listen to if there will likely be any configuration that I can modify from Ubuntu’s (and even Router’s) aspect, in order that nearly the drone is linked to the router as a shopper with its IP tackle, 192.168.10.1.
Any assistance on configuration will likely be appreciated.
