Hmmmm. No access via WiFi all of the sudden

[Cali9dub]

Well for some reason when I open my GHL app on my iPhone and I am at home using WiFi I am no longer able to connect to my P4 in the app via WiFi. I can connect to it via the MyGHL connection in the app but not WiFi. The WiFi light on the P4 is green, but no dice connecting. It tries establishing connection but then shows connection failed. Connection to the device could not be established. Absolutely nothing has been changed setting wise at all. Just quit connecting. Any ideas why ?

Got it going. Somehow the IP address didn’t match in the settings as my network showed. I never changed it. Had a very short power outage not even long enough to reset the clocks. Wonder that hogged the settings up somehow ???

Power outage will do it if you did not reserve that specific IP address on the router for that device.

Odd thing is....I have had tons of power outages. Living in south Florida they happen every week in the summer. I’ve never had any problems till the other day.

Highly recommend just setting up a static ip. Solves that problem permanently.

That’s how it’s been set up.

Even if your router is handing out DHCP the lease address should stay the same.
