857 will not connect
« on: 2015-12-14, 17:02:58 »
Hello again, just had a question hopefully someone can help me with. I had my remote rig working properly at home with my cell phone data and home network. All connected great, took the setup on a trip with me and now will not connect. Everything looks the same to me. Anyone have a suggestion. I cannot even ping home IP address for some reason. My internet provider says they can ping it????

Thanks for any suggestions!

Do you have fixed IP so you know you are pingning your IP ? If you have dynamic IP it may have changed.

I am supposed to have a fixed IP but I am suspecting the service provider never completed that request. I did go to remoterig ddns and search for my IP address and tried pinging that. The IP that my service provider told me and the remoterig where the same. Going to try again today to get things going. I guess another hour or two with Eastlink.

Thanks
Mike
