With the adhoc jumper in place the above settings override the current saved configuration settings.
From your computer, connect to the WiFly-GSX-XX network. This is an open network which does
not require a pass phrase or pass key. Note: currently the WiFly only supports OPEN mode for
creating adhoc networks.
NOTE: It may take a couple of minutes for Auto IP in Windows to assign an IP address and connect
to the network. You can check IP address of your Windows computer by running the
ipconfig
command in the command window. If connected, this command will show you the IP address and net
mask for your computer.
The IP address assigned by Auto IP must be on the subnet 169.254.1.X otherwise the WiFly GSX
module will not be accessible.
NOTE: If your machine has both a wireless and wired interface hardware you will need to disable the
wired LAN interface hardware before connecting to the adhoc network. If the wired LAN is enabled
the computer will assign an IP address that is not on the same subnet as the WiFly module.
Once connected and you have a good IP address, telnet into the WiFly module on port 2000
telnet 169.254.1.1 2000
You should see the response “*HELLO*”
You can now enter command mode and configure the module.
