Problems Configuring Radio
Hey guys, sorry to dump more problems onto you, but yesterday our team was trying to configure our dlink radio for home use following the instructions on the FIRST Technical Resources. However it kept failing. We suspected that it might be our crappy Windows 8, so we tried it on Windows 7, still no luck.
We get no error except: Failed to change IP Address Check connection to Radio. Does anyone have any ideas as to how we can fix this issue? |
Re: Problems Configuring Radio
Last year the config utility had to be run in Windows7 compatibility mode, not sure if this is fixed this year. See following steps to run in compatibility mode:

So, even in Windows 7 we still have to run it in compatibility mode?

Re: Problems Configuring Radio
The issue could be the radio. Try a factory reset by holding the reset pin down for 10 seconds. Then try configuring the radio again. The configuration tool may fail the first two time (it always fails for us). Also make sure your computer is set to the correct ip.

Re: Problems Configuring Radio
We have successfully run the configuration on windows 7 x64 native without any issues this year. Multiple computers multiple times, we were beta. Just a data point.

Or maybe there's another network adapter already configured with the address the tool wants to set the wired adapter to. Or perhaps something has set a secondary address on the network adapter, and that's keeping it from working with the configuration tool. It might help to go through and set every network adapter to DHCP, make sure there are no additional IP addresses set, then disable all of them except the one being used to connect to the router. |

Hey guys, I'm getting a similar error. it makes it to the end and then sends a message:
Code:
"Bridge configuration failed: IP address not restored to DHCP |

Re: Problems Configuring Radio
Just making sure, is there a difference between DHCP and "Set IP address automatically"?

And you turned off (disabled) the wireless adapter while you were doing the Bridge Configuration, right? And you have no other devices plugged into the ethernet besides the bridge? I know that they warn about firewall issues in association with many communication issues. Can you maybe disable your firewall completely and try it again? |

EDIT: nevermind, it worked when I went to the file location. I think when I installed it, I or it must have accidentally created a shortcut to the beta utility on the desktop, and I had been using that. It worked, thanks! |
