Profilux connection help please

[kvmn]

ok after i done with this last step and saved but when i go back it,,nothing has been save ,i have to start over with adding ip # and add LTRX-IBSS into controller again

• Thereafter the SSID (Service Set Identifier, names your wireless network) has to be
entered. Ex works LTRX_IBSS is set.
• To save these settings in the (W)LAN-card you have to confirm now by selecting yes and
pressing Return.
After performing preceding steps you set a static IP-address; the ProfiLux can be accessed under
this address. In the event a WLAN-card has been adjusted additionally the type of the network
topology (ad hoc or infrastructure) and the SSID has been set.

then i look into my router there is no Ip address that i added into controller
and i did follow this step from w-lan turial
• To setup the LAN-card or WLAN-card click on the corresponding icon; then press
Configuration. Now the configuration dialog is opened.

even when i look into router and no is no ip address in router
thanks

ok i am confuse right here
Otherwise proceed as following:
• Deactivate your wireless network security temporally to be able for establishing a
connection to the WLAN-card.
• Start your internet browser (e.g. IE or Navigator) and enter the previous set IP-address in
the address field. In this example the IP-address 192.168.0.170 has been entered.

if i deactivate change from WPA Personal to WEP my wireless is doesn't work anymore for pc so

then i connected with cat5 hardwire to my computer laptop to search ip address 192.168.1.109 that i put into PLC and that ip address doesn't work

now what?

btw English is not my language so bare with me thanks

ok i did deactivate wireless security
now i can see my controller ip address in the router but when i open addrss bar to search 192.168.1.100 and the small window did pop up

helo i need help here please,,,
i am stock right here

3 WLAN-security settings
This section is relevant for WLAN-cards only. In the event you have a LAN-card you can skip this
section.
After setting IP-address, SSID and network topology the radio network security settings are left. If
your wireless network is unprotected (not recommended) you need not to do further settings.
Otherwise proceed as following:
• Deactivate your wireless network security temporally to be able for establishing a
connection to the WLAN-card.
• Start your internet browser (e.g. IE or Navigator) and enter the previous set IP-address in
the address field. In this example the IP-address 192.168.0.170 has been entered.

i did everythiing like above (deactivate wireless) but when i start internet brower with ip address 192.168.1.100 (same ip i added controller)
small window didn't pop up,,,,,,what should i do nowwwwwwww???

[Matthias]

in the previous post you wrote "and the small window did pop up"
now you wrote "small window didn't pop up"

I am confused - what do you mean with small window?

if your router "sees" the IP of the ProfiLux it must be possible to access it.
First simple test: Try to ping 192.168.1.100 - result?
What about your firewall?
Does your router block the connection to the ProfiLux?

[kvmn]

sorry i did miss typping,,,the small window never pop up so( its didn't)

after browser internet IP address 192.168.1.100 then there is should be a small window pop up so i can enter user name and password in

i will keep try different ip address to see what happen and check on firewall as well thanks

I can see that you are strugeling some basics here.
I found some points to check.
Which SSID was used in the PLC? "LTRX_IBSS" is ex works but you need to set your SSID first to make connection. Default is "linksys"
Also you must setup a new wireless connection on your laptop to be able to connect to the PLC.
Try these steps in order:
1: Disable the WEB security in your router NOT the wireless.
2: Check which SSID is used (default "linksys") and make sure this is set in your PLC (and your laptop and your router, all the same).
3: Set the IP address for WLAN in PLC to 192.168.1.70 (by default the linksys DHCP server start at 192.168.1.100 so do not use 100 till 150 at the end) Actually you should follow the instructions as in the (W)LAN – Tutorial

4: Set your laptop wireless connection without WEP, you should be able to connect to the internet at this point.
5: Open you browser (Internet Explorer or Firefox) and type in the address bar 192.168.1.99.

This should do the job and give you the login page for PLC.
If you are unable to do the above I advice you to google make yourself confortable with wireless LAN.
Success

sorry kvmn!
Small correction. in 3 I said to set the PLC address to 192.168.001.070. Please also use the same address in point 5. = 192.168.1.70
Also your WLAN network ïs "infrastructure" so in PLC do set Ad-hoc to NO.
