robotmaker i have test router that is sitting right next to me so nothing else is on it. Did you get it to work?

I am in china for about 2 to 3 weeks ,so i cant work on it till i get back

Doug, Do you have the device connected to your EZ-B board yet, or are you trying to test independently first?

You won't have a comm port on your PC for it without virtual com port software. One of the other threads here has a link to a free one, but you don't need it for EZ-B. (the com port you are getting is from the USB TTL adapter used to configure the board, which I believe could also be used to provide a USB-TTL connection directly to an EZ-B - something I will need to test when I order my board).

based on the configuration in your screen shots, in the EZ-B connection, rather than selecting a comm port, enter the IP address and port of the auto-work server and click connect, and you PC should connect right up to the EZ-B through the WiFi board (ie 192.168.1.119:8090)

I haven't played with the serial terminal yet, so I don't know if it can also connect to the WiFi device the same way or if you really do need a virtual comm port for it. (and I am working now, so I can't experiment). You might be able to test using telnet (open a command prompt, type telenet 192.168.1.119 8090 [enter] and see if it connects and responds to the AT commands in the manual.

Note: I am getting this from a post from DJ and reading the (rather poor) manual at elechous. I guess I should really go ahead and order one of these boards and get it figured out myself since every time someone asks a question we only seem to get half answers about it. I'll order and write a configuration doc/tutorial.

Ouch.. Anyone know a US supplier of this kit? I really don't want to pay $30 in shipping on a $42 part. If not I'll need to see if I can find enough stuff to make the order over $100 to qualify for free shipping.

If anyone else is looking for one of these, let me know and I can put together a group order and then do cheaper in country shipping once I receive them.

EBAY has it for $46.70 plus $2.90 SHIPPING

ELECHOUSE WIFI board

on VIRTUAL PORT program i did find a free one that works with EZB and posted it,havent had a chance to test it on the elechouse WIFI board yet

But will in about 2 weeks when i get back,looking to make my own tutorial on it and other WIFI boards i bought.

Thanks @Robotmaker. That essentially makes it the same price with $7 shipping, so much better (although I imagine slower). I'll see if anyone replies about my group order idea, and if not, I'll order from your link tonight.

-- Edit... I stepped through the shopping cart a bit more, and I can do HK post to US post (same as the eBay order) for $6.70, so essentially the same either way. I'll still wait until this evening to see if anyone wants to do a group order before I buy.

ON ebay its the same manufacturer,and where i am working is in shen zhen CHINA for 2 to 3 weeks ,but not shore if i can visit the elechouse plant,working 12 hours a day there teaching a tech to repair my equipment i design and made

Even if you could visit (which might be cool), I don't think you would want to try to bring stuff home. You would need to declare it at customs and might need to pay duty on it that could exceed the shipping depending on the mood of the customs agent.

When I went to Japan on a business trip/vacation, I shipped a bunch of my stuff home before I started the vacation part so I wouldn't need to lug my business clothes and tools around the whole country. Big mistake. Got held up at Dulles Airport for three weeks, and I had to go in person to the customs office and fill out all kinds of paperwork swearing that everything in the box was stuff that I already owned and took to Japan with me. Huge pain.
