Thanks. I tried a reset before, and it reset all the parameters but not the wifi config. My home network was still in there, but still didn't work. I tried it again just now and it seems like it was the same result.

When I try to connect my 4.2 HM to WiFi it seems to work for a few seconds, but then says 'Wireless is disabled or not associated'. It used to work, but I hadn't used it in a while and am now trying to connect it to a new router. I tried the old router and couldn't get it to connect to that...

I will try a reflow, thanks for the help!

HeaterMeter checked out on me for my Christmas brisket smoke yesterday. I started setting up around 5am, which included bringing HM outside where it was around 25 degF. It had been plugged in inside for at least several days before this and was fine. A half hour later or so, I plugged it in...

No problem, it's not a big deal for me whether it works or not, but I'm happy to help figure it out (and the engineer in me doesn't like when things that are supposed to work don't). I gave the HeaterMeter the hostname 'HeaterMeter'. I only did that so that I could see it in my router's...

The ping works. And I'm sure both my PC and HeaterMeter are connected to the same network, I only have one wireless router. And I have verified that they are both on the same subnet with the same gateway. Right now my external IP is 69.180.163.102.

I guess the other thing I meant to ask... I've never had my device show up at http://heatermeter.com/devices/. It's certainly spent plenty of time on a network with internet access. Is there a way I could go about troubleshooting why not? Thanks.

Well, openwrt.local does work on my local wifi for PCs and Apple devices. But apparently Android devices are unable to resolve .local hostnames, based on some googlings. Because they don't support mDNS or something beyond my networking knowledge. I guess I'll just assign it a static IP and...

I guess I should have mentioned that my phone is a Note 3. I've tried both the stock browser and Chrome. Http://openwrt.local/ works from my wife's iPhone though, so I don't know what gives.

Anyone know why I can hit http://openwrt.local/ from a PC but not from my phone's browser? My phone is definitely connected to the same wifi network as HM is, and I can get to LinkMeter using the IP address. Same when using Pit Droid. Thanks!

Alright, it's working! I reflowed the GND and SCK joints on the RPi header a few times (a lot of times actually) and finally got them to disconnect. Thanks again for your help.

Thanks Bryan. Everything seems to be connected and voltages OK, but my SCK seems to be grounded out for some reason. I'm assuming that should not be the case? I'm hunting for a solder bridge, afraid it's under the header or the ATmega socket. I was an idiot and soldered the ATmega socket...

Powered up my new HM 4.2.2, and I'm not getting any communication between the rPi and the AVR. LCD just shows 1 row of black squares. Linkmeter is up, and when I try to manually flash firmware I get this message: Stopping LinkMeter OK LinkMeter platform is BCM2708 AVR fuses ERROR Starting...

Unfortunately, the package arrived today and is missing the hold-down clip (part that looks like a staple). I sent a message to the seller, we'll see if it gets resolved.

I was annoyed by that too, so I ordered this one: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00DRDN00E/tvwb-20
