Apex Jr network

Hey everyone,

So I just got an apex jr, and I got it setup so that I can use it at home on my network, but as soon as I leave the house it no longer works. How do I go about setting up the apex so that I can access it from our of the house?

You need to connect to your external IP address and likely have port forwarding turned on, depending on your home setup.

Have you downloaded the Unofficial Guide? Which I believe is now the official guide..
It's all in there, I believe.

Yup I did, but I still can't get it running. I'll try again after work tomorrow!

Port forwarding is tricky, especially with TELUS (and maybe others). The standard ports are blocked, try 5900 rather than 80.

Did you get it up and running yet ? I was able to log on the automatic network the first day I set mine up but now I can't connect to the server . Frustrating
