New Stoker hooked up to network at home.
All port forwarded. All technically OK.
Can pick up the stoker on the Mac using both the house network and the outside internet IPs.
This tells me all is set up perfect.
Here is the issue that must have been talked about here:
The Stoker operates using a static, unchangable Port 80 for communication.
Unfortunately, nearly all ISPs (including mine) block Port 80.
I have spoke to my ISP (who tried to sell me a static IP for $20.00 a month that would open Port 80) and Linksys who told me in no uncertain terms, without Port 80 being open at the ISP, this unit was not going to be getting seen from anywhere but within out home network.
Rock at Rock's BBQ insists there is a workaround.
Has anyone got this figured out.
Also, when using The Stoker, what is the best position for the daisy wheel ?
I have kept it slid closed with the small holes all open but seems like I could go with half that as the Stoker is set for 235º but hasn't kicked on in hours as the temp has sat at about 255º for the last few hours.
I do understand that getting an XL to give up some heat is difficult . . .
