Hi guys, I was using 443; I tried changing it but the open port check tool recommended here still doesn't see anything (Error: I could not see your service on 73.xxx.xx.90 on port (xxx) ). I can, however, get in on the 4-digit port set up for my cameras. So the question then is how to best choose/test a different port? I checked out that list, and it seems to be the blue rows, but I'm not sure. Also, when I choose a new port, to generally test it, do I have to set it up on both the router -and- the ISY? cheers Andrew

Thanks again for all your help! Indeed - I'm trying to access with the same WAN address as what's reported; I am trying to access through Safari on an iPhone, which worked before, with the :xx appended to the IP address. When I try to connect, it simply times out. Everything I do on the LAN works without a hitch! cheers Andrew

Hi again- Ok, I grabbed my IP from that site and logged into my router without any issues. When you say "confirm that it is still the same", what exactly do you mean? The IP that comes up in the ISY interface is not similar, but it's local. thanks! Andrew

Hi oberkc - thanks for the quick reply! 1) I don't have a static IP 2) Yes, it's possible my WAN IP has changed (not totally sure what that is!), but I don't think so - I have a camera set up separately from my ISY stuff and it continues to work remotely... but if you can tell me how to check, I'll do so. I don't mind setting up a static IP and I know that's been recommended, but I've never done that. cheers Andrew

Hi again everyone, Been a busy few weeks and I've been away from experimenting with my ISY... Anyway, I had remote access working fine from my iPhone after some great help from the team in setting up port forwarding. It was very easy and he explained that the Cisco home routers are pretty straightforward. Literally took 3 minutes, if that. So... nothing has changed as far as I know, except I can't get in via the IP I was using before, and though I've been reading a bit, I'm stuck! Not sure what info to post here - any help appreciated. thanks Andrew

Thanks Stu- The goal is to maintain the same functionality each switch currently has, as well as, obviously, making them wireless. : ) I'll open these all up & report back. cheers, Andrew

Hi, I have a circuit of switches I'd like to replace with wireless, probably z-wave. Basically, the two biggest issues are: 1) The 5-switch gang (lots of wires packed in there) 2) The on/off switch for the living room recessed lights, because the load from the 5-switch gang is wired through it. Essentially, I'd like to keep all the functionality but am not sure how to go about choosing they types of switches to use, and also, whether there is a good "multi-swtich" solution of some sort to use in place of the 5 garage switches. Also, the Floods, amazingly, are controlled from THREE different switches currently... (one in this group, two more upstairs. Any advice appreciated! Thanks, Andrew

Thanks!!

Hi, I am a new user and also new to wireless controls... Anyway, where's the best place to ask about wiring and hardware-related things? thanks, Andrew
