    stoker v6

    Yep, agree with Larry wholeheartedly (esp about fetching a beer!) It would be nice to be able to set how much time can pass with no input before restarting (like a configurable value). Also, during the time it is down, would it be possible to keep the temp graph from going to zero? Just...

    I'm with Dwight on this one. Security on wireless has so many options and variants. I use "WPA2 Personal Mixed" because it is more flexible. If you have other WPA options, try them until you hit one that works. Changing from WPA-Personal to WPA2 Personal Mixed will not affect existing...

    Oh, if your wireless network is limiting connections to only a defined list of MAC ID's, then yes, you should probably add the bridge's MAC ID to the list of allowed devices that can connect to your network...

    Doubt MAC reservation is necessary for the Stoker to connect; it is a pretty simple device, but I think we have narrowed it down to the wireless settings in the bridge. (If you can connect a computer wirelessly, we can assume the router is configured correctly.) I would verify all the wireless...

    Yep, you are just trying to narrow down where the problem lives. Need to first rule out the obvious and then work from what we know... while downing frothy, cool beverages of course.

    In my experience, brown ales make network problems much easier to manage! ;-) Make sure you can: -Connect to the bridge while wired to the d-link; -connect to the bridge while nothing is wired to it (e.g. wirelessly); -connect to the Stoker while wired to the d-link; If you can do all those...

    One other thing, Tomato has a variety of wireless modes: access point (AP), wireless client station (STA), wireless ethernet (WET) bridge, wireless distribution system (WDS aka wireless bridging), simultaneous AP and WDS (aka wireless repeating). I would think that WET is the setting you might...

    Dang. Sorry you are having probs with this. What brand and model of router and what model linksys router (now bridge) are you using? In any case try this: Turn on the bridge but don't plug any Ethernet cables into it. Go to a computer that is on your network and type 192.168.0.3 into a...

    Hi Bob, You are right, you should configure the Stoker's tomato router to become a bridge. The bridge should be "invisible" on your network; in other words, when you type in the Stoker's IP address, it should connect to the bridge which will then pass the data to the Stoker. For the bridge to...

    Ordered new Guru today

    You will love the Guru! I have a Stoker and I love it. I suppose the Stoker has more posts because so0me of its features rely on computer networking...but networking is not required to use the Stoker. Most of the posts are not related to the Stoker doing its thing, but rather how to get the...

    Setup of a Wireless Network without the Internet

    Hi Joel, A wireless game adapter is just a wireless bridge but is being marketed for use with wired game consoles. Many folks successfully use game adapters with their Stokers. My bridge calls itself a Wireless Ethernet Converter. Wiki says the name wireless bridge is a colloquial term... a...

    Setup of a Wireless Network without the Internet

    Welcome to the board Joel... Yep, Dwight is correct, you do not need Internet to use the Stoker wirelessly. You do need a wireless bridge (also called a game adapter) to connect the Stoker wirelessly to your wireless home network computers but an Internet connection is not necessary. Of course...

    Stoker - are they in business ???

    I would wager that there are at least one or two high school students who are not drug problems who could help Rocks out. Of course, it requires staying on top of the student to be sure... not a talent that John has demonstrated. Oh well. Whatever he does, I hope John figures it out! He has...

    Bottom Vent Rust

    I'd probably just drill out the old rivet and pop in a stainless steel screw and a couple of stainless steel nuts (to lock them tightly together without tightening down the vent too much). I guess you could also pop a new rivet in but I would be concerned with the vent becoming too tight that...

    Anyone else have a grilling "tool box"?

    I use several of those Rubbermaid plastic bins with lids you can get at most any store to hold my grilling and smoking tools. Inside those, I might have smaller plastic boxes for specific items and their stuff (like my Stoker and the wireless bridge, temp probes, etc.) The bins are nice...
