I am on a hp laptop running windows 7 with avast disabled. When I turn on my EZB it says that it has successfully connected to my network and when i try to connect to my EZB in client mode it connects and then disconnects after a few seconds, I then get this message:
EZB 0: EZB 1: EZB 2: EZB 3: EZB 4: Attempting connection on 192.168.1.1:23 Connection Failed: System.TimeoutException: The operation has timed out. at EZ_B.EZB.Connect(String hostname, Int32 baudRate) Disconnected Attempting connection on 192.168.1.5:23 Comm Err: System.IO.IOException: Unable to read data from the transport connection: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond. ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.Receive(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size, SocketFlags socketFlags) at System.Net.Sockets.NetworkStream.Read(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.Net.Sockets.NetworkStream.Read(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size) at System.IO.Stream.ReadByte() at EZ_B.EZB.drdP31fe7H(Int32 , Byte[] cmdData) BbytesToExpect: 1 U Received: Disconnected Connection Failed: System.Exception: Controller Not Responding at EZ_B.EZB.g0KPD37NHh() at EZ_B.EZB.Connect(String hostname, Int32 baudRate) Disconnected
The EZB can connect when I try it on my dad's computer.
Any help would be great.
Okay, I am going to modify the diagnostic report to return some additional information regarding the wireless network connectivity. I'll have an update for you tomorrow.
Judging the IP Address given to your laptop by DHCP, it does not appear that the WiFi is ever connected to the EZ-B.
The IP Address given to clients from the EZ-B v4 starts at 192.168.1.2 and increments as new clients are connected. The IP Addresses of the network adapters in the diagnostic report shows .5 and .13, respectively. This leads me to believe one of two things...
There are other computers connected to the EZ-B v4 during the diagnostic. There should be just one.
The computer wifi is indeed not connected to the EZ-B v4.
In my previous post, i had asked questions regarding the WiFi connectivity process. I had asked if an error was returned. It would be useful if you could answer that question. I had also sent a video link regarding how to connect to a wifi network. Can you confirm that no errors are returned when the computer is connected to the WiFi network as per the process in the video?
For example, when you click on the EZ-B v4's wireless network, and select Connect - and while you watch it... does it say Connecting... and then say "Unable to connect?" or does it say "Connected"?
Hello, in addition to the questions in my previous post - can you also confirm that the webserver for the EZ-B v4 is indeed loading on your computer? You should be able to connect to the EZ-B, as you assume has been happening, and visit http://192.168.1.1 in the web browser.
If the laptop is indeed connected to the EZ-B v4 WiFi, you should be able to view the webserver configuration page.
Can you answer the above post and this? Thanks! We'll get your laptop running - it's a strange issue that has never been experienced before... but that doesn't mean it can't be resolved somehow
When I click the wireless network for the EZ-B it does come up as connected and i can go on to the network configure page and make the EZ-B make noises by clicking on the buttons.
The final and last recommendation i have is to Disable Windows Firewall: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ca/windows/turn-windows-firewall-on-off
If that does not work, we have no other alternative but to conclude that your Windows installation is corrupt and/or there is a trojan/virus that is undetected in your system. The only recommendation is to re-install windows.
Turn on your robot ,What ever your network is go and disconnect it , then connect the one that says some thing like ez-bv4 then after that, go into ez robot press the connect that says zero and it should connect.
Why is V4 showing up on Wireshark as a DHCP server?
Other devices are (ie. I phones) are getting ip address with no gateways.
I need to be able to turn this off.
I have my router set to fix IPs based on Mac addresses but this is also a problem connecting 2 V4s on same project.
This is a real disruption to network, especially when connecting phones and tablets.
See this thread, starting with post #16 (the previous posts are just me proving to DJ that the issue exists. Post #16 is where he explains what is happening).

It needs to be fixed if you want the V4s to be connected to local network or any network.
When these V4 units are on line and another device comes up and is looking for an IP address, the V4s are providing DHCP services to that device, assigning an IP to that device. This happen especially if you have multiple V4s on line or same robot.
This is no good and needs to be corrected, not just from the stand point of multiple V4s but all other devices.
When it does provides DHCP to the network the gateway is not assigned properly and the other devices cannot get out to the internet. Devices are designed to find the first DHCP and get the assignment.
I was having a hard time figuring out what the problem was until I used Wireshark to find all DHCP servers on the network and the results are in my first reply.
The InMoov robot I am creating uses 2 V4s and I was having difficult time keeping same IP even though I was setting the Mac addresses on the router to the V4s so they would always have the same IP.
We cannot get fixed IPs on V4s I think this is the only way.
There needs to a solution so that I can keep the V4s running constantly with screwing up the network.
