Technical Support / Update of Latest Software
« on: December 03, 2016, 02:39:03 pm »
I've tried uploading the latest software using the instructions from the PAW website but with no success. When I first got the hardware I (somehow) managed to see the PAW page with all the details on but I can't remember how I got that (or where I saw it - on my PC or on my iPad). This is what I've done so far...
1 Unplugged the ethernet cable (to the broadband router) from PC and connected the PAW box directly to router via this ethernet cable.
2 Started the PAW box by plugging the USB cable into my PC USB slot (red light comes on). So PAW now talking to my router.
3 So where do I now type in 192.168.1.1? I can connect my iPad to the PAW box via WiFi (using WiFi dongle...) but when I open Safari on my iPad and type in the 192.168.1.1 nothing happens. If I type 192.168.1.1 on my PC browser of course it cannot find anything because my PC is no longer connected to the internet.
Later that same afternoon: I think I've managed to update the software! After unplugging the ethernet cable from my PAW box, I managed to see the PAW pages on my iPad via the Safari browser. This shows the latest version as 21061124 and under the Updates tab it says No Software Updates available.
If I have got the latest version, it took far too long with lots of trial and error. There must be an easier way!
