Flu card connection problem

troenaas · 12-04-2014, 12:37 PM

Received my Flu-card today.

I´m not able to connect to the flu card from any device. Keep getting the "404 Not found" message.

WIFI icon is enabled in camera, and the "flu card for Pentax" WIFI network chosen.

Entering the "http://pentax" and get the 404 message.

404 is the response returned by a Web server when a connection is successful, but the requested resource in the url was not present. Are you sure you are configured properly?

The K3 is confirming the connection and the Kindle Fire HD is confirming the connection.

...and the 404 means you have successfully connected to and made a request to a Web server.

Confirm that the camera is configured to work with the card (wireless icon visible on rear LCD) (I know...you already did that)
Confirm that the browser URL was either "http://pentax/" or "http://192.168.1.1"

If both are true and you still get 404, call support

Have you got a home wireless network that uses the 192.168.1.0 range (with .1 being your router?)

Ha! Ha! I forgot about that possibility. Good thinking.

In that case the router is answering on port 80 and responding with the 404. I guess the test would be to turn off the home wireless and see if that fixes things.
