 Topic: APEX Internet Access
Posted: April 24 2011 at 2:57pm |
|
I can access my APEX through it's IP address on my laptop through the home wireless access, but when I try to connect through my Dyndns host address (via Droid X) it won't work. I have the Unofficial User Guide, but still can't get it to work. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I've reset the APEX, reset the wireless bridge (which did get me access to my APEX through my IP address).

Negative. Just keep getting "Could not connect to remote server". I'm having a problem using my dyndns.org host address to access the APEX remotely while away from home or through my Droid.

I know how to connect to the home server but I have no idea about dyndn.org. Terence is the guy you need to talk to about that.

Have you enabled DDNS in your router? Usually you use your log in name/password to dyndns.org and the ddns host name.

The port forwarding is enabled on the router. Of course I'm using my limited knowlegde to set it up, but I believe it's correct as I've had it working in the past.

if you want to provide your dyndns hostname, i can portscan it and see if the port is accessible.

I actually got it figured out! While I was away for work we had some friends watching the house and their 4 year old was caught playing with the APEX. When my wife got back everything was still up and running so I figured he had done no damage. Turns out he turned DHCP on so my gateway address that should have matched my IP addres for my dyndns.org account was wrong. Turned DHCP off, set the right IP address and it works like a champ now!
