Hi There,Its Been Awhile S

Hi There,

its been awhile since i picked up my EZB V4 and wow you guys have grow, congratulations in leading the way in S.T.E.M.

since i am a tad rusty, can someone please advise as to why i cannot connect to my home WIFI on my laptop and the the EZB board at the same time - my laptop is only allowing one internet connection at a time?

this is probably an easy fix, but i am pulling my hair out here:)

thanks in advance

Martin

You need to put the EZ-B in Client mode so it connects to your router and is on the same network as your computer (or have two WiFi interface on your computer, and make sure the EZ-B and your router are on different subnets, more complex)   There are several tutorials  but at least on my mobile I am having some difficulty finding the most recent one to give you a link in the new web site format, but searching "connection" in the tutorials section should show you older ones by Rich and Cardboard Hacker that give the basics

Thanks for the responses Guys.

Right the story so far.

I have done as Alan and the Tutorial suggests and am making headway, i have found the IP address and the board is confirming that it is connected to my router

Yet, when i enter the IP address into the "connect" bar the board gives me a tone, but i am not able to connect?

Also, if i do a search, the board makes a tone at the correct IP, yet it does not appear in the list on the right?

I feel close, but i am missing something?

thanks in advance
