Version:1.0 StartHTML:0000000168 EndHTML:0000001380 StartFragment:0000000438 EndFragment:0000001363

Hi

 

I have installed stella on my iPad and it works well.Very nice in “Access node” mode.

 

However I can not get it to work in “Connect to network” mode.

Please thell me how to connect to network node.

 

My setup is like thes:

 

Ny network is the “RC-2 TP-Link”.

The following pictures show whoat happens when I push “Apply settings”:

(I had to split intot wo files.)

Second picture is just before pushing Apply Settings.

First picture show Stella as Access point “Stella” the yellow curv, and my home network
“RC-2 TP-Link”, the read curve. The other lines are other networks or my neigbhours.

Third picture from a few seconds after I have pushed “Apply settings”.

Version:1.0 StartHTML:0000000168 EndHTML:0000000733 StartFragment:0000000438 EndFragment:0000000716

Stella has now changed radio frequency to the same as my home network and seems to be in Access mode causing collisions on the radio frequency.

Fourth picture show Stella switch off for restart.

Stella is no switched off and under restart.

Forth picture show Stella after restart.

Stella Version:1.0 StartHTML:0000000168 EndHTML:0000001021 StartFragment:0000000438 EndFragment:0000001004

starts to use same frequency as my home network. This causes sollisions on the wifi network and will after a while saturate my home network with retransmissions and take down the complete network.

It seams stella is in Access mode and transmitts on my home network frequency. I accessed Stella in its IP and confirmed Stella is still in Access mode and confirmed this.

Please tell me how to connect a network.

To mee it seems Stella has a fault.

I may helpe you to solve this but I might need some helpe from you to fix this.

I am a senior M.Sc in electronics with wide experience.

    Technically you are supposed to get support for the Stella Wi-Fi unit from Meade.  But maybe I can provide some help.

    What firmware version do you have on the Stella Unit?  You should probably update to the latest which is 1.3.4.

    After you have put Stella in "connect to network" mode, do you still see its SSID when you scan the networks.  I assume that is what the yellow line is in your graphs, but I'm curious if you still see it as a stand alone network you can join.
