Hello,
i have 3 EZB4 Controller.
I try to connect all Controller as Clients in my network.
If i connect 1x EZB4 "192.168.178.21" everything works.
If i connect 2x EZB4 "192.168.178.21 + 22" i get only the web interface from the first one "21". I also find only one the "21" in the EZB Software - not more!
The same with 3x EZB4
To my Router:
I check this situation with two diffrent routers Fritzbox 7330 and Fritzbox 6840.
I see ALL 3 x EZB4 Controllers correct conneted in the WLAN! But only the "21" Controller Web Interface works!
I set the channel settings from the first EZB to 1, from the second to 2 and from the third to 3.
I dont know.
I only can connect 1x EZB as a client to my network! Not more!
So what is the problem?
Thanx a lot!

PS:
If i connect single to each controller, they work fine, but together!
The first one on the network will hand out the lowest available octet addresses, so once the second one starts, it will be 192.168.178.2 if that isn't already assigned on your network.
The search function in ARC should find them whatever addresses they wind up with.
This thread provides more detail and more information on workarounds:

no the firewall make no problem,
but after your tip, i hack the ezb4 controller manual with the MAC Adress to the Router/Wlan Config and now all are working!
Thanx you tipp help me!
Boris
It's gerat that they are working now.
yes, i connect each ezb4 with this MAC Adress to my Router.
I heard this from other FritzBox User this can help sometimes.
One EZB the FritzBox like, but 2 definitiv not. Only with this MAC Adress Connection.
But it ok! I had now 5 times Notebook and Router off and after Restart again, every EZB connected correct to my Network.
So the "Bad Boy" in this Story is the FritzBox!
Boris
no the EZB4`s has still there own MAC Adress, but the FritzBox makes problem if i connect all EZB4 automaticly. I must connect each EZB4 with a fixed IP Adress to the FritzBox and this i do with the individual MAC Adress from each EZB4.
In the End I have saved 3 EZB4 with fixed diffrent IP Adresses and diffrent MAC Adresses!
I think this is a typical FritzBox Problem, i never tryed with netgear or diffrent router.

To me, this looked like Boris said that he was using one MAC address for multiple boards a he only referenced to "this MAC address", not their addresses which I didn't understand.
Thanks again, and I'm pleased to hear you got your connection issues sorted.
so you have problems to connect 2x EZB with a router?
Which Router you use?
