Network Question:

Ok, here is what I have:

The ports are: Router 10.0.0.1 Desktop 10.0.0.2 MagicJack 10.0.0.3 EZB 4 (Sally) 10.0.0.4

I have everything going into the router and then going to the Internet.

I have two wifi connections. One is for the Internet and one is for the EZB. If I hook up for the EZB, I loose the other connection.

I guess my question is: How do I hook it up were they are BOTH connected?

The ports are conflicting.

I have just quit if for today. My brain is going in circles. But feel free to leave advice if you think of something.

I am STILL having problems!

On my wifi, there are many connections, but there are TWO connections that are of concern for me. When I hook up with the V4 I get the following:

First Off, the v4 hooks up to the Sally robot fine using the EZB wifi. But, no net.

The second connection is my router. When I connect to it, my tablet can get internet.

I can't get into client mode. I have did this EXACTLY like the videos show and When it get's to the point to enter in my SSD: and Password it WON'T connect. It is as simple as that.

I have tried a hundred times over the last two days.

D.J. or someone, Please Help!

Thanks in Advance Mel

Mel,

Both SSIDs and Passwords are case sensitive. Make absolutely sure you are typing it correctly.

Are you actually entering your password and SSID or you just stopping there?... What happens when you enter your password and ssid and then click connect? What does the ezb say or do when you click connect? The ezb should reboot and now should flash a green LED... and state that it has successfully connected to your network Important make sure your password and name of your wifi network are correct

The ezb4 reboots and says it cannot connect to the network. I enter the ssd and password as I always do to get into the system.

I can connect in ADhoc Mode just fine. But, I need to have the internet in order to control the tablet from the Desktop with TigthVNC which had previously worked great. If you know a better VNC type program, I am happy to try it.

OOOoops! my wife is calling for her meds. I will be back THU. got to go give her her meds and take her to the doctor.

thanks guys!

Are your batteries fully charged? I sometimes can't get or hold a connection even before the low battery warning comes on, especially when I am using 6 NiMH AA batteries instead of a Lipo, particularly if I am an another room from my router.

Maybe I am not being clear enough.

The ezb3 works and the ezb4 works fine. I can connect to both of them at once.

I can only connect to the internet when I disconnect the ezb4 because there is some sort of conflict.

The problem is that I have the tablet built into Sally. In the past, I have used tightVNC to control Sally from my Desktop.

But, I cannot use tightVNC to control Sally because it uses 10.0.0.4, the same as the V4.

I need to change ONE of the ip addresses, but I don't know how.

Once I install the tablet back on to the Sally, it becomes much harder for me to get to and change things.

That about sums it up.

Thanks for all of the advice from you Wonderful People!

The symptom you are describing ("I can't connect to your network") does not match what you are saying here. That is not an address conflict, it is an incorrect SSID or password, or inability to reach the router.

That being said, if you want to specify an IP address for the EZ-B, you do that in your router through something called Address Reservation or Static DHCP or something similar (different names for different routers). You tell the router the MAC address of the EZB and the address you want it to have.

The MAC address of your EZ-B is 00-07-80-01-07-C8

Once is is on the network, you would use TightVNC to connect to the computer 10.0.0.2, not to the EZ-B at 10.0.0.4. Also note: until you have a reserved IP in the router for the EZ-B, if you do not have the desktop connected to the router before you boot the EZ-B, the EZ-B will grab the lowest available address, so it will be trying for 10.0.0.2.
