Hi All, I cannot for the life of me connect the AXC F 2152 controller to the internet. I can SSH into it from the PC I am on, and then when I am SSHed into it, I can ping back to my computer. I have tried hardwiring an internet connection to the PLC as well as sharing my computers WiFi. No matter what I do I cannot ping 8.8.8.8. Is there any more documentation other than just this on how to connect this thing to the internet?
If your WiFi router has an RJ45 LAN socket, then the simplest solution is probably to connect the Ethernet port on the PLC to that RJ45 socket. The IP address of the PLC should then be set to a fixed address outside the range of addresses that are reserved for DHCP assignment in the router (usually above about x.x.x.100 or so) to avoid address conflicts, and the Gateway address on the PLC should be set to the IP address of the router (usually x.x.x.1). The PLC can then access the internet, and can be accessed by any device on the WiFi network, including the PC running PLCnext Engineer. This arrangement works well for me at home.
