m.roberts Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Hi everyone. So I have this driver installed twice in my system, one for my phone one for my wifes phone. I set up DHCP reservations on my router for each of our phones. I am trying to set these 2 drivers up to detect when our phone are on the local network and there for 'at home' as far as C4 is concerned. I put the new static IP into the correct spot in the configuration, but the C4 system isn't successfully finding (pinging) either of our phones. I can confirm 100% that our phones are on the network and pingable from other devices on the network, but for some reason, this driver/C4 cannot find it. Any ideas, help, suggestions? thanks!

alanchow Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 The Extra Vegetables Ping driver does not perform a real ping. It sees a device is on the network by checking to see if there is an open port on the device. Our FREE ping driver does perform a real ping and should work for your usecase. Note as a free driver it comes as is and without support. http://www.chowmain.co.nz/ping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitaltrader Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I noticed the EV reboot driver for C4 devices isn't working either. Anyone else with a similar issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gave me no documentation though, so I don't know what do to with it as I see no options or programming description. Is there a basic set of instructions somewhere?

Pretty intuitive though. You ping a device. It fires an event based upon the success rate. Use at your own risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
