I was able to do the following:

1. Access the Linksys box

2. Load the firmware

3. Access the linksysbox with an address of 172.27.0.1

Problem - when I rebooted the box I am not able to access the 10.x.x.x address

I am using static addressing so localnode does not work. How do I locate the 10.x.x.x address?

What is the valid range for the 10.x.x.x address in your software? What is the subnet mask? 255.255.255.248?

Thanks

Unless you turned off the dhcp server as you did the set up you node should give you an IP address when you connect a computer to the LAN ports that is set up to use dhcp. 

If that doesn't work connect your WAN port to your home router. Go into the home router and determine the IP address it assigned and from another computer connected to your home router connect using the assigned IP address. For example if my router assigned 192.168.1.103, I should be able to get in using http://192.168.1.103:8080.

As a last resort reflash the node using the tftp instructions on the install page.

I forgot the most obvious answer.  Use a second working node to connect to the first one through the mesh. The status screen should show the ip of the node or you can go into the setup screen and set the ip there.
