I was reluctant to use the IP to connect for the reasons you suggest - it might change. However, I have now done so and have been able to store it as config so I could change it if we moved to a different router and would need to restart but not re-compile. So, on the router management interface, I have reserved the IP address 192.168.1.102 for the device called Waverley01. I have set up this IP value in the config file for the app.  (Very easy in Visual Studio) Config for the Adruino is stored on an SD card.  It used to read: SSID, Pwrd, Server Name and Port number.  I now store Server IP on the card instead of Server Name. Works fine. Thanks for your help.   ... View more

Thanks for your prompt reply. After starting the PC app and seeing it get to the point where it is waiting for the Arduino to connect, netstat -an shows the PC LISTENING using TCP protocol at Local Address: 192.168.1.102:8888 (as well as ...:139) and Foreign Address 0.0.0.0:0. From the Arduino end, I try to connect using the name of the target device.  This worked on the Vodafone Router at home.  It seemed more flexible than fixing an IP address Happy to try the latter. ...

I am working on behalf or Waverley Woodworkers.  We have recently had TPG NBN installed which includes the Archer VT1600v Router. We have a dust monitor device to which an Arduino with WiFi is connected.  There is an app running on the club PC which collects and stores the data gathered by the dust monitor. This arrangment has been commissioned in my home office using my Vodafone modem and it works perfectly. At the club, I can see both the PC and the Arduino when I view the Network Map. I can see diagnostic output from the Arduino that shows it has successfully connected to WiFi.  I can see diagnostic output from the app running on the PC showing it has instantiated a server and offered a connection to a client using TCP/IP. However, the attempt by the Arduino to connect as a TCP client never eventautes. The connection is using port 8888.  Do I need to do something to gwt the Archer config details to allow this connection. ... View more
