You didn't answer my question.

I don't know what netmasks you are using so assume 255.255.255.0 or /24.

192.168.0.0/24 is a subnetwork and 192.168.10.0/24 is another. Normally they can not talk to each outer without some sort of router/gateway.

Both computers are using the same Netmask 255.255.255.0

I can see now I'm going to have to setup both computers on a Fixed IP.

I want to setup both of my computers with a static IP's , but in etc/network/interfaces the file it is clear,nothing is there.

can someone send me a Static IP Setup file so I can compare and make one for my Fedora and Pi computers.

I have always had problems with setting up Static IP's in Linux.

You can use network manager to set a static ip address without manually editing any configure files.

Their always changing Fedora and the old ways are just not working.

As I said before setting up a Static IP is not easy.

Michaelk I sure do appreciate your help.

Below is changes I made to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp2s0 and it not setting up to a Static IP, it goes back to old settings.
I did REBOOT the computer.

Below is the changes I made;

[mickey@mickey ~]$ su

[root@mickey mickey]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp2s0
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=192.168.10.9
NETMASK=255.255.255.0

ONBOOT=yes

This is crazy, NetworkManager is Started, Enabled, How do you use it.

I went Fedora website they showed howto install, status ,enable it but not how to use it.
I did reboot the computer.

Caveat... I have not played with Fedora in awhile but you typically right click on the network applet on the menu/task bar and select edit connections.

That's how it works on my CentOS7.

Try https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US...ide/index.html.

mickeyboa,
You didn't comment as to whether you had any more questions or solved the problem, but just to note, if you have your host on a /24 (netmask NETMASK=255.255.255.0) then you are going to want your gateway on the same /24 - so both hosts on 192.168.0.x IPs, gateway on a 192.168.10.x IP, or two separate subnets with a gateway on each - or you could make it a /20 (NETMASK=255.255.240.0) and then the 192.168.0 and 192.168.10 will be on the same subnet.

Hope you got this straight. I sometimes hit small learning curve issue when things in Linux are changed, and I use it all the time. Things have become dramatically more complex (though often easier to use fortunately)
