Does it show port 200 open when you check your port?

He means port 2000, not 200.

When I click the link it has the address and then say port 80 when you hit check it says port 80 is closed. I put 200 and 2000 in the port box hit check and says they are all closed. According to the wizard when I set it up , it said it had automatically opened port 2000

If port 2000 says closed, port forwarding is still required to be setup in your router.

Hi,

I was having issues with the setup, where the connection would only occasionally work on my home network with a couldn't connect message coming up. I hadn't approached port forwarding.

Because of this and the antiquated modem/router I had, I have changed my cable modem to a cg3100D-2 modem/router combo. I am having a hard time as it won't produce an ip, I am just getting 0.0.0.0:2000 . The green light is flashing.

You have DHCP false... is your router running DHCP? Otherwise you'll need to set a static IP on the wifi module. Also make sure your router is set for AES-2 I believe and no spaces in the password.

Hi Inevo,

Sorry for the delay.

I just installed another modem/router my internet provider (telstra) sent out :roll: . It is a Netgear C6300BD.

I am having the same issue as before.

Have logged in and had a look, seems to run DHCP?

That means your unit is already connect to your router.
Just check the connected devices in your router and you should the wifi attachment as one of them.

I'm still having no luck with the ip - http://192.168.0.11/wifi (IE and Chrome)

Not sure what to do, looking forward to hearing your advice.

Thanks in advance

Is the cable from the head unit to the wifi attachment looking to be good?
Is it a RA+?

Can you ping the wifi attachment from your computer instead of using the router tools?

What is the ip address on your PC? Are you sure you are in the the same network?

Hey Rimai,

Sorry for the delay, have been quite busy.

Seem to have gotten it working on my phone while I am in my network. Couple of weird things are happening though.

- My router/modem is putting out 2 networks 'Telstra1B6E' and 'Sherray'. Sherray is our old network from 2 modems/routers ago, so not sure why it is still around.

- I setup the module on the 'Sherray' network, hey presto it's working. I can't access it outside of my network but it is accessible on both the 'Telstra1B6E' and the 'Sherray' networks, but only when the wifi module is connected to 'Sherray'.

Anyway, it is working in my network now which is a big step forward. How do I get it working on my phone when I'm out?

Regards
Cody

Sounds like you still have that router in there and you probably have two routers, which is complicating things a bit for you.

Sooo frustrated... I did everything as i was supposed to from research here. i get to the part where i have to make it work with outside of my home network and nothing i see people saying that i should see. Meaning i dont see what people are telling me i should see. but it may be because they didnt explain how to get to that part.

If so, you need to setup port forwarding in your router.

If you are able to access the internal webserver you are all set.
Green light means you are connected to your WiFi network.
It is not supposed to do anything else.

You are already all set. You don't need the wifi sketch. Your wifi attachment is already setup and connected to your network.
