Portal: Unreachable Address

[RadJag]

Can someone please tell me how to connect to the wifi attachment. What downloads to I need to update

There is no download needed.
You must log into your router and set it up for port forwarding properly.
The issue is in your router and not the wifi attachment.
Every single router out there in the market is setup by default to consider all incoming connections as hostile and it WILL block it.
The router doesn't know you are not hostile. That's where port forwarding comes in. If setup correctly, it will instruct the router to let it go of that incoming traffic and it will forward it to your wifi attachment that is behind the router.
Another user wrote a little tutorial that may help you.

You can also search in the internet on how to do it in your particular router or call your internet provider/router manufacturer.
There is also a software that automates simple key pushes that I've heard works pretty good:

Ok, I was able to at least have my computer recognize the wifi attachment after downloading and older version of wifi utility, but now it tells me:

Error: please disconnect and then reconnect

Every time. I am not doubting you that the issue is with the router. I would simply like to know why I cannot access my wifi attachment through wifi utility

Anyone?

Can you post the log when you try to setup?

I am using the older version of wifi utility, the newest version won't even connect with my wifi unit

[rimai]

Ahhh
You updated the firmware.
I think there is something in this firmware that is not working correctly.
I'm not so sure what the manufacturer updated that is causing this conflict.
Another user also had the same problem when he did the firmware update:

Problem is, Tera term is a windows software.
If you want to use a MacOSX software, you will need to use Coolterm and you will need to manually type all the commands instead of just running the macro in the post above.

I have a Surface running windows 8, if I download all of the reef angel apps on here, will that give me an easier time? Should I download the newest version?

I appreciate your help.

If you install tera term in a windows computer, you will be able to follow the same steps in the other thread.
