I think the fios router has a window you can ping machines on your network...also can you post a screenshot of ipconfig /all from your laptop.

Ok from the router. Under "My Network" click on the icon next to the ReefAngelWifi device. In that screen is a test connectivity button. Click that and let's see the results from the router. If that works, again try disconnecting and repeating the test...

Are you sure your wifi attachment is still using 192.168.1.3?
You mentioned you reset your router.
This usually forces the ip address table to change and the router will reassign ip addresses to all your devices in your network.

Is there a factory reset button on that router? Hit that thing and start from scratch. That is if you can't ping anything else in your network too

I think we may need to confirm your wifi module settings via serial...I'll wait for Roberto with the commands...but your wifi module isnt on the network based on what I am seeing...

Just curious though, can you disconnect the wifi module and retry the ping? I still feel like there is an ip,conflict...maybe wait a few minutes after disconnect...

Also can you try pinging other devices in your "my network" screen from the router and your laptop and see what the results look like?

Can you ping the laptops ok from the desktop / router and vice-versa? At this point just sounds like something didn't configure properly with the module. I would look to reset it to factory and start again.

Agree with this. If you can ping everything else now except the module we need to start from factory with it

I agree. I think you need to reset the wifi module to factory settings. Also find out what version of software your running on the wifi module as well.

Ok...you may have a firewall running on your desktop preventing other machines from pinging it. I still think we should reset the wifi module and reconfig. Also dump the settings through hyper terminal with "get e" I believe... If you can't ping the wifi module from desktop or router then it's not staying on the network. You may need to try that beta firmware too, but I don't think we are at that point yet...

Under the advanced setting on the verizon router, you can setup Dynamic DNS. You can add the no-ip.com acount info and the router will update the address.

I'm not sure how no-ip.com works, but wiht dyn-dyns your account name is your dns name...

So for me, I have easte.dyndns.org and I put my account info into the router. The router updates dyndns anytime the external IP changes. And in my iPhone I pount to easte.dyndns.org port 2000 for my ReefAngel and it connects back to my router.

It should be fairly straight forward. The only problem is for dyndns I have a grandfathered free account so I have the client also running on my computer to make sure it logs more frequently otherwise I lose my account if not updated every 30 days...

No-ip works the same way except for deleting of the account..Lol

You need your server www.no-ip.com
hostname you picked
username
password

And thats about it.

I think dyndns.com has free accouts, so you don't have to pay for basic stuff like dynamic DNS.

I use Dyndns and there is no need to setup anything in the router even. I just use a small program that update dyndns on regular basis with my current ip and voilà.

Strangly they say that no-ip is free on their web page??
