Yes. It looks like part of the setup requires the box to 'call home' to get registered anyway. Or better, I guess it would be easier if the device could broadcast to a specific port (that your local software app would listen for on that specific port). Is UDP broadcast supported by the N+?

#44516 Finding all Netduino Plus(s) on a network

#44609 Finding all Netduino Plus(s) on a network
Posted by emg on 30 January 2013 - 08:58 AM in Netduino Plus 2 (and Netduino Plus 1)
HiredMind, That's awesome, thanks for sharing! I'm looking for something similar to enumerate one or two N+ on the network. The reply to the broadcast could be the MAC and IP address and any other status info, so no digging around or populating the ARP cache. I'm pretty sure this is how a lot of network printer managers work that find all the vendors printers on your network to install/setup drivers, etc. I've only got one N+ right now that's in use but have another on the way and will test this out. Thanks again.

What bug in socket.connect are you seeing?

I use Setup Factory from Indigo Rose and have found it very easy to work with.

Integrate how, into the VS IDE? No. Be able to load a project and scan all the dependencies, runtime support, GUI/LUA for scripting, templates for common install tasks, yes. Not open source, but worth the money IMHO.
#44914 NTP Time howto call with SDK 4.3
Posted by emg on 04 February 2013 - 07:42 PM in Netduino Plus 2 (and Netduino Plus 1)
I thought this was (and still is) broken in VB. See Query NTP server. Byte operations not supported?
#44917 Rain sensor
Posted by emg on 04 February 2013 - 07:50 PM in General Discussion
look up around the rear view mirror. The ones I've seen are optical and use an IR led and sensor. They work by sensing a change in the amount of light reflected from the windshield, which changes when there are water droplets on the glass over the sensor.

Did you know you can install the Mono runtime on the Raspberry Pi and run C# programs on it?
Mono does not run on the current hard-float Raspbian image. You have to use an early soft-float Wheezy that never left beta. See this thread: Raspbian vs Wheezy (beta) Mono support

It looks like will eventually get sorted, just be prepared to wait... or just use the Wheezy soft float while you wait.

+1 for using XML or other machine readable format. I would also look to change the schema so you can define any number of on/off times per end-point rather than a fixed flat layout as you are currently envisioning.
#45965 We have reproduce a lockup (when the internet fails) with a video
Posted by emg on 21 February 2013 - 12:32 PM in Netduino 2 (and Netduino 1)
Chris, Watchdog please! It won't help N+1 issues but this will help JoopC and other 'black box' installations (like when you have a Netduino installed at your mother-in-laws house and it locks up...) if using N+2.
BTW, I thought that with N+2 and it's 'offloaded' Ethernet chip, this was supposed to allow you to recover from networking issues by simply power-cycling the Ethernet chip?
JoopC, can you try another test with your router? Instead of disabling DHCP, what happens if you unplug the router from the ADSL line and reconnect. Does it still lock up?

Try plugging into a different USB port (esp change from front to back ports or other way). This will change to a different USB controller, and often can kick the PC into re-recognizing attached devices).

What's happening to the MAC address every time it's freezing?

Check and see if the router or Cisco has any DOS blocking filters and enable them. My Draytek 2820 has these and rejects large/malformed packets.

Posted by emg on 26 February 2013 - 10:41 PM in Netduino 2 (and Netduino 1)
cdn,
Sorry, you mis-understood me. Enable the DOS (Denial of Service) packet filters on your router (if they have them) to >prevent< malformed packets from locking up your router, not suggesting they were the cause.
Also, I would be wary about testing via direct cross-over cable between 2 NIC's as I've seen this cause issues, depending on the NIC. it's better to connect both devices to a switch and use port mirroring to sniff packets.
#46318 N+2 Hangs on HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream()
Posted by emg on 27 February 2013 - 10:07 AM in Netduino Plus 2 (and Netduino Plus 1)
Wow, that's strange. What type of router do you have? What your saying is that effectively you can use every IP address only once until router reboot? I assume this is the ARP cache and it's supposed to 're-register' a device every time it connects and periodically, see here ARP Cache - What is it?
So is this a result of no/bad broadcast support in the lwip stack (i.e., not registering as dynamic) or something else? If you take one of your other connected devices that are using a fixed IP address (Apple TV or Samsung printer in your example) does it also have the same problem?
#46477 N+2 Hangs on HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream()
Posted by emg on 01 March 2013 - 09:35 AM in Netduino Plus 2 (and Netduino Plus 1)
Thanks, for the update. That looks like the better option for you (set device to DHCP and reserve it at the DHCP server). It is still unusual that the netduino that changes its static IP address does not signal the change to your router and you have to manually clear the ARP cache. This should happen by OSI model design.
