Hi I would like to know if it s possible to use app mobile to control ezb from my iphone without using wifi.? I would like to use web browser( app mobile) from my iphone to launch camera. I found a tutorial to do that from my ipad or iphone but the phone have to be connected to the ezb by wifi. Is it possible to do that without using the wifi and use directly the box to access to the ezb. Is it clear? If it s possible, does it exist a tutorial? Christophe
hi DJ sures You don't need to upgrade the EZB to connect the device by iPhone ? i need to upgrade only if i want to scan the network ? That should works without upgrading the EZ-b ?
for PTP, with or without the wifi, the result is the same from the iPhone. My goal is to access to the ez-b with my iPhone when i will be out of my home. ( out of the roaming of the wifi) Christophe
ouch....
Let's start with the scenario where your iPhone and EZB are both connected to the same WIFI network:
I do not believe this individual is using wifi at all. I have a feeling, based on the postings, that there's no wifi network and the iPhone is not connected to a wifi network. The original post in this thread is asking how to connect with wifi.
Lastly, if the translation is misunderstood and there is a wifi network, the router may have ap isolation enabled. AP isolation is enabled by default for many telco rental routers.
That is a different story. If you want to connect to the EZ-B while away from the network, you would have to open ports on the firewall in order to allow you into your network to connect to the EZ-B. As stated earlier today, you have to have your device and your EZ-B on the network.
If you are connecting from outside your network, you would need to be familiar enough with your firewall to forward ports to your EZ-B. You would probably want a Static IP address provided by your ISP so that your IP address that is exposed to the world would not change and you would still be able to connect a few days, weeks or months from now depending on your ISP.
I would expect an extreme amount of latency doing this. It is also possible that your ISP would block access from their end anyway. There are a lot of variables to make this work.
@christophemaury,
I think you are missing how private networks work:
if your EZB is connected to your home network, your desktop or mobile phone needs to be connected to the same network.
If your goal is to access from a public network (iphone without wifi) to a private network (your home) the idea is not so simple.
Please read the thread: https://synthiam.com/Community/Questions/9641 post #5
we all (me, David, DJ) assumed you are in the same network, it seems is not the case, can you confirm ?
Goods new's it 's very strange but i can connect ezb with the iPhone in client mode only if the iPhone is connected to the wifi's home but i have to be quick. I explain what i do. 1- I connect the ezb in client mode 2- i reboot the ezb. 3- i perform the app mobile from the iPhone ( connected in wifi mode) 4- i reboot the ezb and wait the message "ezb is connect......" and i have to click on connect just 1 or 2 seconds after the message.
just in this case thats works... If i wait more than 10 seconds to do some checks, it 's dead. very strange.
To reply to the first question of Ptp, it's yes

yes, it's exactly what i want to do. I will read in detail your thread and i stop to disturb you and i hope to find some answers... it seems (the thread) very very hard for me. ....
Thanks a lot for your help
