RP6 ROBOT SYSTEM - APPENDIX
6. With AVM routers, the option:
“The listed WLAN devices are allowed to communicate among each oth-
er”
must be activated. If this option has been changed, it may take some time until
the connection works. If necessary, turn the router and the WLAN module off
and on again (the router might need up to two minutes for the reboot).
7. If settings are changed, some router models need some time until the changes
become effective or may even require a restart. However after a restart, it
should work. The first connection may take a bit longer. The following connec-
tions should be very quick though.
8. Is a firewall active on the router or the computer (also check the Windows fire-
wall), that might block the data exchange between the WLAN module and a
computer? Please check carefully the settings of all involved firewalls!
9. Port 2000, TCP and UDP must be allowed! In addition port 55555 UDP should be
allowed (for Broadcast and Auto Discover function).
10. Please try and deactivate the firewall completely.
11. Check all settings of the WLAN router! Is anything blocked somewhere? Also
check the logs of the router to see if something blocks while the WLAN module
is connected.
12. Please open the serial(!) terminal in RobotLoader and click on
Options->WIFI Serial Config->Reset WIFI + Enable Passthrough
in the RobotLoader menu. The module must of course be connected via cable.
Then type in the following (always confirm with Enter)
