SharkRF.link not connecting upon network changes

Wd9jen

'm having issues connecting to my Openspot4 and M1KE via SharkRF.Link web page or the iPhone APP after the devices change IP addresses. The IP address change can be due to my changing to a different network (Wifi, Hotspot etc) or the device just getting a different address via DHCP
.
Seems once the device is found, it only looks at the first found IP address. Even if that address is not on the current network. For example if I was on a 192.168.1.x and move to a 10.x.x.x it will continue to look for the device on the 192 subnet.
I need a way to clear the IP address, and re-search, or be able to enter the address in addition to or instead of the UID. Mark wd9jen

Both the openSPOT and the M1KE report their local IP addresses to the sharkrf.link service when they acquire a new one from the DHCP server (your router).

Make sure both the openSPOT/M1KE is connected to the exact same network as your browser device (phone/tablet/computer)
Make sure they have internet access on both 192.168.1.x and 10.x.x.x network, otherwise they won't be able to report their IP addresses.

HA2NON I can always connect from my browser to the openspot4 or the M1ke using the assigned addresses from the same network. No issues. Using SharkRF.link does not look for the devices on a new network after connecting successfully. So if the network changes it still looks at the previous address rather than looking for xxxx.local.

This is a problem when I don’t have the ip address for the openspot on a network I don’t control. I can get the ip address for the M1KE from the display and directly connect.

If the device gets a new local IP address from the router then it automatically tries to report it to the sharkrf.link service, so https://www.sharkrf.link/ will always work, unless the device can't contact it to report its local IP address.

Understand. That is how it should work. Example: I on my home network. Openspot4 and M1KE are connected to my home network (192.x.x.x). Sharkfr.link on my phone, which is also on my home network has found both devices can connect to either. Works great.

I leave my house. Turn on my phone hotspot. NEW NETWORK NEW SUBNET. Openspot4 and M1KE both connect to the phone's hotspot (172.x.x.x) as the phones network is in the connect. Phone, Openspot4 and M1KE are all on the same subnet. I open up Sharkrf.link (web page or app) on the phone and select the Openspot4. A blank web page opens on the phone with the URL address for the Openspot4 of my home network. The M1KE also shows the URL address for the M1KE that it had on home network. If I wipe the CACHE of Safari it will find the devices..... However, I have to put in their UID's again as new. SharkRF.linnk is not up the "new" network. You should be able to test this using a WIFI network and a phone hotspot, or two different WIFI networks.

Try using a different browser.
