    Thanks guys. I’ve confirmed the uRad can access 8.8.8.8 and there are no firewall rules on my router.

    Can I confirm what ports are used by the device?
    I’m wondering if there is a port forward I have for other devices that is getting in the way.

    Port forwards / DNAT do not influence the uradmonitor device as it does not need to be accessed from outside your network, the uradmonitor device initiates the connection.
    SNAT rules must be valid but most SOHO routers don’t even offer options to change this.
    Afaik the uradmonitor can use any outgoing port from 1 to 65535
    going to port 53 for 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4
    going to port 80 for data.uradmonitor.com
    going to port 80 for uradmonitor.com
    broadcast to port 67

    Can you bypass your router at all? I feel like we’re going in circles here.

    Hi all

    I’ve been through router setting very carefully, there are no firewall rules (other than port forwarding to other devices) and the device has full access to 8.8.8.8

    What port does the uRad use? I’m wondering if a port is being forwarded to another device that it needs?

    It’s just a basic HTTP call, with a TCP/IP socket opening port 80 on the remote server.

    Is it possible to try it on a different network just as a quick test to rule out some of the possible issues?

    Hi all, I can’t see any obvious firewall issues and the unit has access to 8.8.8.8

    I’m wondering what port the uRad uses, I have a number of ports forwarding settings in the router. Only thing I can think of

    Thoughts?

    Doh – please ignore the repeated question on ports. I didn’t see it coming up in the thread for some reason so posted it again.
    Silly of me…apologies….thanks for all your help….

    No problem. Can you run a few tests on a different network?

    Hi there (all again).

    I’ve tried a few additional things with no luck, even changed the router with no setting other than those needed to get the internet working.
    In all cases 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 are accessible, all other devices on the home network function perfectly. It’s difficult to take to another site / network as it’s been hard installed but think this is going to be needed.

    Using my Ubiquiti router I captured the following. I’d be interested if anyone can spot anything unusual.
    I’m still getting http:0 0/0 on the :80 web page fro the device.

    I recently upgraded the f/w from a very old version (Thanks Radhoo)…wondering if something related in going from very old>new using early hardware?

    Sorry, the 192.168.1.200 was me trying a different IP in case there was some address conflict. Back to .105 now.
    Oddly it sometimes come up with 200 / 1 / 1 or similar (200 / 3 / 3) then goes back to 0 / 0 / 0 again

    @Wolferl is right, and his comment made me look at something else. I don’t know how I checked this first, because I had it on my mind: https://www.uradmonitor.com/tools/dashboard-04/?open=11000007

    The duty cycle is too high. The firmware reboots the unit when the duty cycle reaches 80% . So this is why it appeared as having network issues, the reboot happened right after Ethernet initialisation (including DHCP lease), just to take everything all over again.
    This is not the true duty cycle received by the switching transistor because there is a second blocking transistor that quick closes the gate so it is not dangerous for the parts even if the value seems high.

    The model A doesn’t have a voltage multiplier, so the inverter works harder to jump from 5V to 380V needed for the tube. The ferrite core’s permeability is affected by temperature, but I see the weather is chill there. Replacing the inductor would help, but let’s put software first: I can provide a modified firmware that lowers the switching frequency and achieves higher voltage with less effort. It will also remove It approaches the audible spectrum though, as we are already at about 15.5KHz

    Please check your mail.

    Thanks both for your help and patience!

    Thanks all for your help. The new firmware (v1.35) is working well now (or so it seems :o)

    I am getting constant http 200 returns and online on the https://www.uradmonitor.com/ site.
    I’ll keep an eye on this as the temp drops overnight (winter here)

    Glad I wasn’t going mad…

    Ohh and now it’s failed again overnight

    Was running very well, but as Radu suspected as the temp dropped the unit has gone offline and rebooting.
    At least it’s working better, but still not 100% right.

    At least I think we know what the issue is (and isn’t)

    Thank you, the new firmware is working well and the unit remains online overnight (when the temp dips).

    Thread closed, happiness is a working geiger counter….
