Got New Router, Can't Get WF2IR to Work Now
Posted: Sat Oct 11, 2014 4:45 am
I got a new wireless router, Netgear N300, it is only a router so I still have a separate modem. I set-up the router and have internet access of all my other devices in the house so I know it is working. I connected directly to the WF2IR by resetting it, connecting to it and going to 169.254.1.70 in a browser. I typed in the IP of the router (192.168.0.27), the gateway of the router (this is the address of my separate modem right? 192.168.0.1), the mask, the network name and password. After I do this the LED on the WF2IR blinks about once per second showing it is connected. I tried using ihelp and it said it found a WF2IR with the same IP that I entered into the settings 192.168.0.27, is that right?
I reloaded my Demopad project and I got nothing.
I changed the device properties in Demopad to 192.168.0.27, still nothing.
I tried test commands in Demopad and they failed.
I tried typing in the IP 192.168.0.27 in a browser and it says page cannot be displayed.
What am I doing wrong?
I did not have a problem when I was using my modem and router in one but the signal was horrible which is why I am trying the N300.
