Connect to sbRIO via Wi-Fi using wireless bridge

[NapDynamite]

Hi,

I have a sbRIO and I want to connect with it (program and deploy code) wirelessly using wi-fi of my laptop PC. I went through few links but they all use two wireless bridges. I have only one wireless router to which I want to connect IP camera and sbRIO and over the other side use my laptop's wi-fi to connect with sbRIO.

Regards.

Just read the router manual - you need to set up the DHCP or static IPs on the router (and in case of static IPs on all devices) and configure sbRIO IP settings/access list to be able to connect with it from the given IP range.

I would suggest first to connect both your PC and your sbRIO to the router directly (ethernet) and get the connection working. Later on if you will encounter problems when trying to connect with WIFI it will be just the router configuration problem and not your PC or sbRIO.

Regards,

J.

You should be able to do this by plugging your ethernet devices into your router, then joining the wireless network from your laptop. Just make sure that your router is set up so that the wireless and wired networks are on the same subnet. Once you plug the sbRIO and IP camera in, connect to the wifi from your laptop, then to go the router administration screen (usually you just have to type the IP address of the router in your browser and press enter). From there you should be able to see the devices that are physically connected to your router to ensure they are there.

Have you tried this already? If so what problems are you running into?

I haven't tried all this yet. I am going to get a router first and then if I encounter any issues, I will probably post topic. 🙂
