How to access a local IP address outside the range?

In fact, not exactly. If you want to access an IP that is not in your subnet (so in your case not in the range 192.168.0.0/24 - that is, between 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.254), you will have to go through a router. The question I have is: how do you detect this IP? Do you have access to the equipment that carries it? If your need is to have this equipment on your local network, you need to give it an IP in the right range.
However, be careful. The range you are talking about (192.168.0.2 to 200) is your DHCP range, the one in which IPs are automatically assigned. If your equipment needs to have a static IP (a camera or a printer for example, it's better to have a static one), you should choose this IP outside of the DHCP range but within your subnet, so an IP between 192.168.0.201 and 192.168.0.254.

Hello,

If it's a router that manages the IP by connecting to this router. By changing the address range of the box if the concerned device has a static IP.

Hello,

Set the mask to 255.255.0.0 on the devices?

Hello,

as the flat-tailed rodent said, if you detect this address, it's because you're accessing it via a router, or you're doing an arp-scan on a range larger than your IP network, 192.168.0.0/22 for example, and this machine is poorly configured.

I don't know this wifiman, we would need to see how it scans, whether it's via ARP or ping, knowing that you can prevent a machine from responding to ping, but not to ARP.

However, ARP only works within the local network, not crossing routers, while ping does cross routers.

Edith:

wifiman is this Ubiquiti app then?

Either you reconfigure this IP address to put it in your network, or you add a router, but then you'll need to add a static route to access 1.20

And there you go, there it is ....

But misery, how annoying the line spacing is !!

Thanks? Unfortunately, the access point is in the attic and my laptop doesn't have an RJ45 port, like most laptops nowadays.

I'm not going to be able to change my computer's IP address to 192.168.1.xx because this address is not within the allowed range.

Should I change the IP address of my Freebox to be able to change the range?

Oh, OK, so it's a wifi bridge then?

If you want to reconfigure the upstream AP (the one connected to the box), if I understood correctly, it's the one that reverted to factory settings, you just need to reconfigure a PC with a static IP address in the 192.168.1.0/24 network, for example 192.168.1.200, and you'll be able to reconnect to your AP to reconfigure it in the box's network.

Did you do it like that the first time?

If you're trying to do it from the app, it depends on how it works; either the initial setup is done via Bluetooth, in which case you need to bring your mobile close to the AP to access it via BT, or it's done via WiFi, in which case you need to connect your mobile to the AP's WiFi network, which should have an address assigned by DHCP in the 192.168.1.0/24 network.

Or, as Castor mentioned, reconfigure a static IP on the mobile, like 192.168.1.200.

And there you go, there it is....

But oh dear, those line breaks are such a pain!!

Thank you for all your help. Indeed, I may have needed to do it this way the first time, but that was at least 6 or 7 years ago, I must admit I've forgotten a bit. If I change my computer's IP address to 192.168.1.200, how could I then return to its address of 192.168.0.144 if I’m no longer within the defined range seen by the Freebox?

I just reread your answer. Do I need to disable the DHCP server first?

Hello, install this by taking the setup.exe:

NetworkManager

go to the left to scan ip

and scan this ip.

post some configuration screenshots.

thanks
