Ethernet with Arduino board
Re: Ethernet with Arduino board
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?

Re: Ethernet with Arduino board
Double check WAN IP and port under "settings" at the bottom
Re: Ethernet with Arduino board
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.

Re: Ethernet with Arduino board
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.
Re: Ethernet with Arduino board
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".

Re: Ethernet with Arduino board
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!!!!

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

Hope all are doing well on RA! Miss you all. I have a new born and once he is a bit older he and I will enjoy the RA and a new salt tank! Like my sig says....out for now but not over!
Keep up the great dev and hope to see great new things in the future!
