If your business operates in a large office or other large commercial space, a single router may not suffice. Benefits of Using Bridge Modeīy using bridge mode, you can extend the range of your business’s Wi-Fi. Instead, the bridge-enabled router will extend its port access to the connected devices. The bridge-enabled router will still transfer data, but it won’t perform traditional Network Access Translation (NAT) processes. When it enabled, it essentially turns the respective router into a switch.
What Is Bridge Mode?īridge mode is a networking feature that allows two routers together. Being that the router serves as the central hub for your business’s Wi-Fi, you shouldn’t blindly enable bridge mode without first understanding how it works. With a few clicks, though, you can enable it.

I will now stop logging options in JowiHue and copy the logfile to PC in case it may contain a clue to what happened and wht did not happen.When configuring your router, you may come across a setting known as “bridge mode.” In nearly all routers, it’s disabled by default. And finally the bridge is back and working!? I did the same again a couple of times. Then the bridge disappeared from JowiHue configuration. Then the log file indicated it found it and started registering devices. In DeConz Gateway Advanced I clicked Authenticate app.
Then the bridge appeared in JowiHue Configuration. (UPNP.Bridgescan) Debug: End search for bridgesEdit 2: Tried to make JowiHue.ini file in /usr/local/HomeSeer/Config.

I enabled logging in Jowihue and it seems it is actually looking for the bridge I deleted!
Not to change anything in HS3 or Phoscon.
Ambify wont find bridge install#
The power down was to install a new light fixture. Also the Phoscon app connected through the browser on the PC. I can VNC to Phoscon and see that it's web interface shows the nodes are connected, so I know Phoscon is running. But I am unable to find the dialog mentioned there! I believe it was 2.1.1.10 when the problem started. After this problem I updated Jowihue to 2.1.1.11.
The PC I use to manage them is the same though.Īnyway, I just deleted the bridge and started scan for new bridge. Not this being a copy of the one at home.
Ambify wont find bridge software#
I cannot see why, as both Raspberries with their software have been started from scratch. Then I turned off the mains fuse, did my job and turned it on again.Īnd JowiHue could not find the bridge! It presented the IP to the bridge being what my home system use ( this is in my summer house ). And Phoscon, or rather it's Linux by sudo shutdown now. HS3 by using the Tools->System->Shutdown system. I had to turn off the fuse to the HS3 and Phoscon Raspberries, so I politely turned them off first.
