Re: Who is using Comcast???

Post by Sacohen »

Since Comcast says I have a static IP and I haven't seen the IP address change since mid August I removed the DNS address from the Android app and entered the IP address that I've had in the app.
The app started working again at about 5:15pm today.

The link to my code is in my sig, but here it is.

Currently the Portal is working, but the Andriod app is not.

Lee the IP address the portal is showing is the 73.139.228.XXX. the same one I PM'ed you last night and the Andriod app is set to look at that IP address on the "Away Host"

I am able to ping the External IP address from my desktop at work.

I have lost connectivity about 3 times since my last post.
Each time I hard reboot the head unit (disconnect the serial cable and reconnect it) the connectivity comes back for about a week.

Use Tera Term or putty and type $$$ after you connect at 57600 baud.
It will prompt with CMD>
Type enter and anything else and it will show the version.

You have to be connected with the Serial to TTL cable, right?

You can't do it wirelessly?

Yes. Or you would have to type really fast.
There is a timeout of 1 second and the TCP connection is dropped.

I can't seem to figure out how to use Tera Term or putty to even connect to the WiFi unit.

I removed the WiFi unit from the RA head unit and plugged the Serial to TTL cable into and into my PC.

Then when it was asking for an address to connect to I gave it the IP address that has been assigned to it (10.0.0.11).
Is there some thing else I should be using to connect to it.

If I try enter with the word anything (or any other word) it returns
ERR: ?-Cmd
<4.00>

That means you are in command mode.
All you need to do is type the command you want to send.
What are you trying to change?
You can make a mistake. It won't recognize backspace.
If you type anything wrong, you will have to type it again.

Do you think I need to update it?
What is the current firmware?
Could that be why I'm having problems keeping connectivity?
Do I need to download the current firmware from anywhere or will it do it automatically when I enter ftp u?

I think you should also look at the recent thread about fixing connection issues...

I'm still unclear what issues you are having. After our last review we were all set...is it still where it works on wifi and not elsewhere or the reverse?

It works on everything, when it works.
I lose connectivity about 2 times a week and I have to reboot the head unit to regain it.

Try this?

Have to reset WIFI every Night
This thread addresses this same issue. The fix there works for most, but not all people.

Sorry, I forgot to mention you also need save and reboot.
So:

Code: Select all

ftp u
save
reboot
The latest is version 4.41
