Hey,
I’m trying to connect the dock. The orange led is blinking. The remote finds it, I enter name, password and wifi connection.
Then the orange led changes between a few colors, and the twice white, and the turns off.
The remote keeps showing the loading. after a few seconds, the remote says Error Time Out. The dock hasn’t been added.
Someone on Discord also wasn’t able to pair the remote with the dock but only when he first turned on the remote and then the dock. It only worked the other way around.
In my case everything seems to work fine, and the dock was shooting off IR commands last time I tried. But I had learned from the get go to keep the remote in the dock while running the Web configurator. One odd thing, though. When I look at the client list in my router I see the remote 2, but nothing else identifiable as R2 related. Is the name of it some unidentifiable string? There are a few of those. I guess I’ll worry about it if there is a problem.
I still can’t get the dock to connect. I can’t get into the configurator. Tried using the server address and the IP address. The former says site can’t be reached (server’s ip address could not be found) and the latter gives the error 404 page not found. I see the remote’s IP listed in my router; dock too (it is the esp32…). I tried to ping the remote from the command line of windows, and it times out. I tried to ping the dock and it returns saying “Destination host unreachable” and times out. I can successfully ping my samsung tablet, my firetv stick, etc.
There is nothing to configure on the dock. Everything runs via the remote control. The web configurator is best accessed via the IP of the remote control. The remote control must be awake, it is best to place it in the dock so that it charges, then there are no timeouts.
