M1XEP

Hi,

I finally setup the M1XEP and seem to be able to wrok it except for accessing the java app from the web (outside the network)

I can access it using the 192.168.0.5 but when I use http://REALIP:2601 nothing comes up and when I use https://REALIP:2601. I get a screen with nothing but username written.

Is is not a dialog box. It is a webpage with USERNAME writeen on it.

I have opened the port in the router and it does not work. I can only seem to make my Homeseer work across the network.

regards,
 
Encrypted Port 2601 is for ELKRP connection only. When accessing the Java webpage remotely, you will be using port 80. Port 80 may need to be routed to the M1XEP in your router. Use http://REALIP which will use port 80 and access the webpage.

ELKRM remote management software uses port 2101, but it is not encrypted, so beware if using it outside your local network.

The M1XEP documentation covers other ports that may need to be opened through your router for other applications.

What portS do you have open? The M1 requires more than one. Search CT for 2601 to find some of the previous threads and tips.
 
To enable full control from ElkRP and the Java web page from outside your network, Enable ports 26, 80, and 2601. I have heard of some ISP's in the past blocking port 80, so you may/may not have to work around this. What I have done:

Forward public port 2110 to port 80 on the M1XEP. You would then have to type in "http://myhouse:2110". Your home's router will see the request on port 2110, and forward it to port 80 on your M1XEP... Hope this helps you getting up and going!

The problem I have with the PAT (Port address Translation) is that many routers do not easily have the port redirect feature. I am waiting for ELK to add a custom HTTP listening port to your choice (i.e. 8080) so that you can simply enable one to one NAT as every other ip device does. Until then, I am writing my own version of RM that will run straight to 2101 and enable you to customize your own buttons.

While I applaud your efforts. its seems a whole lot more difficult (and time consuming) to try to rewrite a piece of software like RM then either use different firmware in your router, or to simply replace it with one that has what you need. I truly wish you luck!
