Hi to All
before continuing with the tests I would like to have confirmation. From the various topics in the forum I understand that a CR1000 connected to a GPRS modem, can manage the problem for the dynamic IP address (which makes it unreachable). Through the DYNDNS services and the right CRBasic programm the logger can be achieved, even without the use of LoggerNet. So the modem should not have this feature (DYNDNS)?
many thanks
Regards

As you have seen you can add code in the logger program to work with most dynamic DNS systems. However, in many cases on GPRS this will not help you as most networks allocate PRIVATE dynamic addresses. Because they are private addresses you cannot connect to them from the public internet.
Apart from trying to get a fixed IP service with a routed public address, or access to the private network via a VPN, there are two other options available to you.
One is to get the logger to call-back to the loggernet server in call-back mode. If setup correctly the Loggernet PC can then hold the connection open so you can call out to the logger at any time. This however requires your LN PC has a public IP address on the internet.
If you cannot do that you could either consider having us collect the data for you (see the Konect data hosting service at www.konectgds.com) OR we can offer a routing service, for a small fee, where you have your logger call-back to one of our Konect servers which acts as a router for you. You can then connect and collect data using you own copy of Loggernet which does not have to have a fixed IP or be directly on the public internet. Contact sales at campbellsci dot co dot uk if this is of interest to you.
