Connect myRIO to the external Internet to communicate with (ThingSpeak) IoT platform.

[Jason_Y]

Overview:

I am working on a Solar Energy project which use HTTP POST to send data to ThingSpeak. 

I was able to send from myRIO to my PC host, then send to ThingSpeak with HTTP POST. 

Due to high energy consumption of the PC host, I would like to remove it and use myRIO to send data to ThingSpeak directly.

I have tried to connect myRIO to a router, but whenever I connect to the router, myRIO seems to create it's own private network through the router's network.

I have also tried the check internet access VI (HTTP method) found online [ https://learn-cf.ni.com/teach/riodevguide/code/rt_check-internet-access-http.html ]. It shows internet is ok, but I am suspecting it is a local internet.

Please help, thanks 😞

Hi Jason,

I am working on a same type of project, where I send the data from myRio to real-time database. I am able to do it outside myRio but when I try it inside myRio it just runs but do not post anything to the database.
Additionally, I have gone through your post and solution for the HTTP client and SSL support which removed the uploading error to myRio but still can't post data.
Your help in this regard will be highly appreciated

Thanks
