Is there a way to know if my wifi adapter is still sending signal? Now when I try to set up port forwarding my computer does not show the reef angel. The blue light is still blinking but my phone app does not work either

Blue light means no connection. You want green light. Try to use the wifi setup again.

You need to get intimate with your router. Most likely your router gave it a different ip address. You need to find on your router how to "reserve" the ip address so it doesn't change. The problem if it changes is 1) you don't know what it changed to and 2) it could mess up your port forwarding.

I know its frustrating, this part takes really learning a bit of networking. This process is no different than with any other controller and I've seen plenty of threads for the same issues with apex too.

We'll help you get it figured out, try not to let the technical issues get you worked up.
