Hi,

 

I've received my Netduino Plus 2 last week so it's fair to say I'm a newbie

 

I've managed to read temperatures from several DS18B20 sensors and want to send those to a REST service I've created. However, the Netduino has problems with connectivity.

 

I can see the Netduino in the "LAN computers" list of my router (so it got an IP address from the router) but I can't ping it.

 

 ipaddress_netduino.png   4.8KB   0 downloads

 

 pingresult_netduino.png   10.42KB   0 downloads

 

Is there anything else I need to do (maybe enable ethernet on the Netduino)?

 

Thanks!

 

Stijn

Hi Stijn, A few diagnostics steps for you... Is your Netduino Plus 2 connected directly to your router? What happens if you Debug.Print your IP address on the Netduino Plus 2? Does it match the router?

Debug.Print("ipaddress: " + Microsoft.SPOT.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces()[0].IPAddress.ToString());

What happens if you give it a static IP address instead of using DHCP? Finally...if you run the SocketClient sample on your Netduino Plus 2 (be sure to set its Proxy setting in code to ""), does it connect to the Internet and download a webpage? Welcome to the Netduino community, Chris

Hi Chris,

 

The Netduino had a different IP address than listed on my router (don't know why...). I can ping it now. The outbound connection was a problem with my service (the Netduino couldn't connect if I entered the hostname of my pc). After entering the IP address of my machine that worked too.

 

Thanks for your help.
