My Blink was installed today. The WiFi connected no problem at first try. The Blink is on the garage wall facing towards the inside of the house. The house is a long ranch style and it is 90 feet to the Router in the home office. I've placed a directional antenna up on top of a book shelf with the antenna pointing at the Blink. Signal strength is about 10 to 15%.
I'm wondering that if there is an internal WiFi cable, why not use an external antenna connected to that coax cable? Then use another corner reflector hi-gain antenna pointed towards my router.
I notice that the Blink unit has a "seal" on it placed there by the installer, evidently to keep busy fingers out of the unit. I'll fix that tomorrow and see what I can see then report back to the group.
So far, no luck in connecting to the Blink via the Intranet, using either the "http://10.233.1.100" address printed in the handbook or the actual address as the router established it, 192.168.0.107. I can go to my HP LaserJet printer using it's address and see the printer;s http configuration screen, no problem.
Ideas? Recommendations?
Regards,
Dave
