Everything is working nicely with my new Ethernet add-on so far (thanks DrewPalmer04) ....except....

I can't control the RA with the iphone app (which was working with wifi - now get "Error Unable to connect"). The portal and android app seem to work fine - any ideas what the difference might be?

Double check WAN IP and port under "settings" at the bottom

Yeah IP is fine.

I see over at the iphone app thread you're reporting the same problem.

Must be the new tags - I'd just attributed it to the ethernet add-on because I started having problems when I swapped over.

Yes...just encountered the issue. I'm thinking XML tags. I wish I had a dev account :( hope the others come up with a release ASAP.

Well i reconnected my wifi module and the iphone app works again - so if it is the extra xml tags, it appears to effect the ethernet add-on specifically?

I've actually had another related issue to contend with too - my dyndns hostname expired. Apparently dyn.com have changed their policies re free accounts - you now need to login to their website monthly to keep it active "using an update client will no longer suffice for this monthly login".

I've tried resets and my WAN IP and dyndns and after a couple days of testing it would consistently crash...now today...working perfectly. Lol sooooooo weird!!!!

It is definitely app specific. I've never lost data to the RA server. So it's not the Ethernet module... I've had a consistent data pool throughout.

So I have a question for those using the RJ45 Ethernet module. What are you using as a case to protect the module?
