Attempting to get response from http_server

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, CC3100, CC3100SDK, CC3200

So I downloaded main.html and blink.html using UniFlash. I did this by opening http_server.ucf and then clicking on the "Program" button. UniFlash confirmed that this operation was successful.

I moved the CC3100 board to an MSP430 LaunchPad and executed http_server from within CCS. I then tried connecting to its network through a mobile phone. The console window successfully displayed this message:

Authentication parameters:
Name = admin
Password = admin
Realm = Simple Link CC31xx

Domain name = mysimplelink.net
Device URN = mysimplelink

However, when I tried connecting to http://mysimplelink.net, I got no response. What could be going wrong?

Any answers, folks? The following is the response that I get when I attempt to connect to simplelink.net. It seems pretty conclusive.

I finally figured out part of the problem. The documentation in C:/ti/CC3100SDK/cc3100-sdk/docs/examples/http_server.pdf said that the default IP address was 192.168.1.1. This was an error. The correct address is 192.168.0.1.

If I use that address, it works. If I attempt to use http://mysimplelink.net though, it does not. Any suggestions?

Try typing in the http:// part as well and not just the simplelink.net part

Also there does seem that things are different on your system, perhaps from previous testing? This may also include the name of the device and the domain name.

Also, note that this behaviour can only be expected when you have set the CC3200 in Access Point mode, so it is acting like an AP.

I did use http://www.simplelink.net. Also, I'm using a CC3100 rather than an CC3200. I'm also using the http_server code verbatim, so it should be configured as an access point.
