Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

I've tried the DHCP method. It doesn't work for me.
Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

Thanks Christian, that is what I used in trying to set it up. The problem is mostly my inexperience in networking? :-(
Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

That could help ?

Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

I tried using DHCP and Autoconnect. I think you can't enter the SSID manually - it is entered automatically when you select it from the list of SSIDs and press CONFIG.
Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

Yeah that won't work.? Just use DHCP, autoconnect.? Make sure there are no spaces in the SSID, front, middle or back of the SSID.

Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

Pretty sure that won¡¯t work. You¡¯ve got a class D IP, with different routing requirements.
192.168.5.18 and 192.168.1.4.

Unfortunately, we can¡¯t see the netmask in the x6100. If it¡¯s 255.255.255.0 - won¡¯t work. You¡¯ll need 255.255.0.0 to route between the two networks. Router is 192.168.1.4 - x6100 needs to be something in the 192.168.1.[1-254] range.
Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

Here is how I have tried to configure the X6100 in WLAN settings.
iolar is the SSID of my WiFi (Eero router).
Password is my wifi password.
192.168.5.18 is the X6100 Reserved IP Address I entered into the router.
192.168.1.4 is the IP Address of my router.
DNS Server I entered same as Gateway address because that is what is shown in the X6100 manual.
?
the WF and WiFi Icons show on the main screen of the X6100.
XIEGU-X6100 shows up as active on my router Device List.
?
Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

I am totally confused about the X6100 WLAN SETTING. Should I set it up for my WiFi SSID, or for my X6100 SSID (assuming that is labelled ff07ab)?
If the latter do I leave DNS Server box blank?
?
Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

Thanks Frank. I use Fing, which does the same things. I also use Terminal.
Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

Hi Denis,

You may already know this but I use an IP scanner program to see what IPs are active on my LAN segments. I've used several but an open source one that I use often is AngryIP, available here:


You can interrogate individual IPs --- ping, telnet, http, etc. --- and it helps spot new devices very effectively.

Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

I have tried setting my router to 2.4GHz only, but that is not the problem.
In the x6100 WLAN Setting, should I see the X6100, and how is it labelled?? Is it likely to be ff07ab? I only see that and nearby gateway devices.
?
Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

Yes the IP Address I entered is within the range.
Ping is ok with all devices except the omne in question.
arp -a shows the device as (192.168.5.18) at <incomplete> on wlp4s0
But so do several other devices which ping ok.
I will have a look at the YouTube video.
Re: Modified BASE firmware - rev1

 

2 or 3 times I saw no power output on AM - first press - power increases, than decreases, next press - no power. I guess, it's due to ALC working - switching to another mode and back to AM restores power. Than it works without issues.
It always happend right after resetting BASE (for example - after installing firmware).
?
I redownloaded the r1 firmware and reinstalled it and power is back to normal 10 watts on am and fm also.
There are 2 versions - on the github (same as I'm using) and attached to my message - with +10db (comparing github version). I adjusted signal levels to output 10W on FM and 5W on AM, when transceiver configured to 10W. My goal was to decrease strength of ALC with same output power and decrease output signals (and noise), when radio working with not full output power.

BTW, good new - I managed to add squelch for FM. Still need some time for testing, hope will publish before end of this week.

Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

WFview works best with an ethernet connection. Use a USB-ethernet adapter (any c-type that say they work with Linux/Raspberry Pi) and then look for that listing on your router. Works like a champ for me. I use the latest Raddioddity FW. Unfortunately R1CBU does not support WFserver.
Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

First - I have a new x6100 with latest firmware installed. I have NOT yet used the R1CBU firmware, I¡¯m monitoring these threads to see what¡¯s going on.

DHCP does NOT work in stock firmware. It¡¯s a known issue, and has not yet been addressed. You¡¯ll have to put in your own IP address, and then turn WiFi on. For my unit, took 3 or so tries before it worked. From that point on - it works each time I turn WiFi on.

Since DHCP has NEVER worked in stock firmware, I don¡¯t know if that was addressed in R1CBU, and if it was - which version of the firmware? Much of this thread has gone back to modifying the 1.6 firmware - maybe that¡¯s the issue?

Also be aware - ¡°mixed¡± networks that use the same SSID for both 2.4/5GHz does not always work with SOME devices. This is both the fault of the router as well as the device. Some routers evidently don¡¯t implement something properly, some device drivers don¡¯t. If you can - turn a guest network on temporarily with a different SSID for 2.4GHz ONLY. MAKE SURE YOU PASSWORD IT. See if you can connect to that. If that works - then something about the router ¡°mixed¡± network isn¡¯t working properly. I had to do that with my mesh network to get it to attach.

If the mixed network is the issue - then you¡¯ve got more work to do to secure your network. Exclude all other MAC addresses, etc.
Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

What do you mean you can see the x6100 but it doesn't have an IP Address?? Does that mean you can find the MAC address but the IP address is blank?
?
Have you ever successfully connected the X6100 to your network?? Does the Webserver built into R1CBU version work?
?
If not I would say you need to resolve the network issue.? Does your SSID have a space in it?
Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

Make sure you choose a valid IP range. When i first got my x6100 it spit out a weird random IP that wasn¡¯t even close to my other devices on my network.
I ran arp -a in terminal on my desktop to list all connected devices to find the x6100¡¯s correct IP.
This video is a quick walk through on setting up wifi.
Hope that helps.

Re: x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 
Edited

I can see the x6100 in my Eero6 router, but it doesn't show any ip address. So I entered an IP Reservation 192.168.5.12
I put that ip into the WFView settings. Still no connection.
I have tried the WFView forum without resolving the issue. I have tried it with entering other IP Reservatiomns.

x6100 WFSERVER ip address

 

Where can I find the x6100 ip address for entering into WFView settings.?
I have looked in my router and see the x6100 but it does not give the ip address. My WiFi uses DHCP.
My x6100 shows wifi connected. WiFi SWITCH set to ON
Re: Modified BASE firmware - rev1

 

I am also running 1.9 and 1.6 r1. The first time I tried it yesterday it was giving me the low wattage readings, milliwatts. I redownloaded the r1 firmware and reinstalled it and power is back to normal 10 watts on am and fm also.
