Not Sure If This Has Been Aske

Skip to comments   Jump To End

Not sure if this has been asked or not, but is there a way to control an EZ Robot from the web. I am interested in building a robot or getting a kit where I can control the robots while I am away from the house. Can anyone point me to instructions on how to do this?

Thanks Shaun

What you have to do is connect your ez-b to your homes wifi. You need to use your routers configuration page to set up a static IP for your robot. Then you need to port forward the communication ports for the EZ-B in your routers software as well. Once that is done, you should be able to type in your houses IP address(google what’s my IP) and type this into ARC followed by the port you forwarded.  You can only test this from outside your houses wifi network, so go to McDonald’s or a friends house and try it.

Also, if your robot computer stays connected at home with the robot, use one of the two http servers
