ok guys i need some help, finally i have some communication between the controller and the computer but during setup it now wants to me manually assign an ip address. it states to never select auto ip address. but i dont have a clue how to manual assign an ip. i typed in the ip address of the computer but the setup says that the ip is already in use by the computer. PLEASE help if you have any clue what to do

I don't have much experience with wireless networking but if you need to manually assign an IP just pick an address 1 different from your computers.

eg.
computer: 192.168.0.1
controller: 192.168.0.2

i think this is where maybe i was going wrong, i was altering a number in the first and second set of numbers. thanks for the help. i'll let you know tomorrow if it works. it would have been nice to have someone jump up from profilux and help me out here.

well i finally got the unit configured to my computer but assuming i have made a small mistake or missing something because when i try to connect now it cannot find the unit and says to check settings and ports. the advice you guys gave on the ip address worked. i setup the redirector and followed the instructions but the unit will not connect.

I know

I'm waiting on the delivery of my new tank. From there, I'll need to figure out a sump. I don't expect to have anything running for another month or so. Until then, I'll probably use a friend's tank to test the unit out.
