Hi jazzler. Thanks for the response.
I was stupidly confusing the GPIO designation on the header drawing with the actual gpio pins.
I have everything working fine. Thanks for the app and the project.
Hi All
Is it possible to change the GPIO numbers controlled by the relays?
I need to use GPIO pins 7,8,23 and 24.
If it is, must the app be change or the Pi software?
Thanks
Thanks for the reply. I had in mind an application to use the Pi and my smartphone to control a device which will not be near a home network i.e. caravan park.
I like your concept and will definitely use it around the house.
Does anyone know which bluetooth apps would be suitable?
Hi All
Just found this post which interests me greatlly having recently upgraded to a Samsung Galaxy.
Is it possible to use the app via bluetooth to control the pi?
If this has already been mentioned, please point me in the right direction.
Hi Joan, thanks for the help.
My PI did not have the GNU library included, however after the latest upgrade the files required are now installed (it pays to upgrade regularly!).
However config is now looking for a "bbw-gc" package.
Any suggestions
Hi Guys. Thanks for the help. I have solved the problem myself, and in the process learned a lot more about the RPI. The solution is to set the DNS correctly in the resolvconf. file.
I guess the answer to any problem is out there on the forums some where
Thanks "bredman", you saved me a lot of work! Here is the code for consideration: traceroute to 212.50.241.131 (212.50.241.131), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 1 192.168.1.41 (192.168.1.41) 0.735 ms 0.498 ms 0.794 ms 2 10.2.0.1 (10.2.0.1) 67.159 ms 73.039 ms 74.097 ms 3 10.0.0.1 (10.0.0.1) 1...
I can't access the RPi on the network, so no go there.
Not sure what VNC and SSh do, so I will try a USB stick (if it will read it!)
Otherwise laborious pen and paper.
I will post the results tomorrow.
Thanks for the patience
Hi rurwin The current config is as stated. 192.168.1.41, 255.255.255.248, 192.168.1.41. Not sure which address for the "traceroute" If I use 192.168.1.41. i get 30 hops, 60 byte packets, 0.611 ms, 0.550 ms & 0.455 ms If I use 255.255.255.248 I get a similar result. If I use 192.168.1.4...
Hi rurwin They say a picture is worth a thousand words! However the router connects to the internet via the wireless network which comprises a 26dbi antenna 10m above ground connected to a server approx. 10Km away. We have no ADSL facilities at the home location. The router is connected via a wirele...
Hi Guys Thanks for the great response, but you have now got me totally confused. :? :? I've struggled with this network too many times.. Your detailed suggestions with binary etc are beyond my old brain, so let me clarify things in my mind The system comprises a router, which used to be used with AD...
Hi Burngate, thanks for joining in.
The set up parameters were given to me for the broadband wireless network and the other 2 computers on the network are configure that way.
I did not set the Bcast address, is was derived from the router (I assume).
Thanks.
I have configured as suggested and I can now ping the WiFi and the server (10.0.0.1) with zero data loss.
However, I can't connect to the web or ping a website.
The RPi update also fails. Any more suggestion?
Thanks for your patience!
Thanks for the reply. I can ping the router on 192.168.1.254, but not an internet address. The IP for the RPi is 192.168.1.44. The netmask is 255.255.255.248 and the gateway is 192.168.1.41 (the WiFi). The broadcast assigned is 192.168.1.47. These are shown in ifconfig. I need to set the DNS to 10.0...
I am becoming frustrated at trying to connect my RPi to the internet. I am using a home network around a Billion 7401VGP connected to a broadband wireless network. There are 2 computers on the network, a desktop and a laptop and all are working perfectly. The RPi is connected to the 4th port of the ...
