have you tryed looking in the communication menu and set it to LAN it looks like it is set defualt to the serial port

i've done that with not luck what so ever. i found the wlan tutuorial on the disc and tried to follow it but when i get to the step where you use the LAN/WLAN connnection tool the screen pops up searching for the unit and it states 0 connected. if anyone has another idea i'm really open for suggestions.

So if someone were looking for a really good deal on one of these controllers now would be a good time to see if you want to sell or give it away? JK
Sorry I can't offer any advise Colin - I am a total idiot when it comes to computors and stuff.
I really hope you get it figured out as from all the reviews they are supposed to work really well.

i dont have a problem with the controller itself, it works amazing but the wireless feature is a PITA. if you were here trying to help me hook it up and it still didnt work then i would probably give it to you ruth. JK. one day maybe i'll get it to go

have you hooked your lights up too it yet? If so what kind of lights are you running are they just switched or are you dimming them? I had one of my atinics stay on the other day the indicator light on the power bar was off but the out let still had power when the cycle came around again in the AM for the lights to come on and off they turned off and have worked fine ever since then So if you ever have this problem let it run through the cycle and see if it corrects it self

Later

thanks for the info doug, as of now i have nothing connected to it. i've been fighting the bloody thing to get it to connected wirelessly to the computer so until i figure that out i cant install it under the stand. lucky me.

I mounted mine on top of my cap for now as I want to keep it away from all the moisture and salt from the sump because as you probly noticed when you put your cards in it is not a sealed unit and I can just imagine what a few years of salt would do to the inside of it once I build my tank utility room in the basement and move my sump down there I will move it and even then it will be in a sealed cabinet to protect it
