To make it more clear, I have tested the following…
First try
9700 - hard connected to access point
laptop - hard connected to router (same network)
works fine
second try
9700 - hard connected to access point
same laptop - connected to the access point (same network) via wifi.
doesn’t work
I know that it should work! The only idea I have is that the program runs in a timeout and stops trying when the 9700 reacts not fast enough.
Should I see some error messages in the wfview log?
Why should I open ports for the internal network, I dont want to access from the internet.
It looks like it has something to do with the wlan-repeater (FRITZ!WLAN Repeater 1750E).
If I use another wlan-repeater (Devolo Magic 2) the connection works.
If I directly connect the laptop with wlan to the main access point (FRITZ!Box 6591 Cable), it also does not work.
I have installed wfview 1.0 on my Windows 10 laptop today, and after it was installed it immediately worked via the same wifi network / router, just like the Mac version i use here.
(on the same network/router + repeater as my Mac)
Not sure if this helps, but these are my settings in WFVIEW
(I have forwarded the ports 5001-5003 in the router , the transceiver is also accessible through internet, therefor the blanked remote IP address is the IP address from my provider, not from the IC-9700)
Hi Chris,
if you look at the picture of my very first message you will see that I can’t select “Modulation Input → LAN” and “Data Mod Input → LAN”. Maybe that is my problem, but I dont know how to fix that.
If I connect with USB I can select everything.
I switched for test to the standard router (huawei) from my provider, no special settings
/ port forwarding etc. set , it also immidiately worked with LAN or WLAN
I can choose the modulation source only after connecting wfview with - IC9700 and turning on the radio. Before turning on the radio, modulation source setting is not available.
