I'm pretty sure the line should read... http://baseball182.dyndns-blog.com/cgi-bin/status.xml
Then make sure the username and password are perfect

I changed it to michaelsreef.from-tn.com
So it should read michaelsreef.from-tn.com/cgi-bin/status.xml?
at dyndns? I was just looking around at reef chat. Did you select the controller type that says Apex? I noticed the next one down says aquacontroller JR, might be confusing, but you have an Apex. I'm just trying to throw out possibilities...2 heads better than 1
That was it Steve i chose the wrong controller thanks buddy!
Yes im using dyndns i just changed to a different name
LOL I didn't know you could do that..told you I'm no networking expert.
Is it working now?
Yes sir, its working now ill have to put all the stats i want to show up and i should be good to go.
Tonight is the first night ive messed with it since the other night i was getting frustrated.Thanks Steve.
So once i gets my stats applied to the signature i have to ask Travis if its ok to put in my signature?
I got it all ready, then pasted it into my signature, and then sent him a PM and he allowed it, I think it's an unofficial (might be official) perk of premium membership

Man they don't make things easy lol But I finally got mine working.
I went with DYNDNS.ORG $20.00 bucks a year ? couldn't find the free one .
Just a heads up after you get your name from dyndns and config in your router (mine is a Linksys) , if its still not working make sure you restart your computer thats what worked for me.
Now on to try and config this to work wireless downstairs by my tank.
I have a Netgear wifi range extender downstairs by my tank hopefully i can utilize that somehow

well I thought I had it working BUT NOOOOO!!!!
I ended up doing the best thing possible IMOP and that was contacting Russ at Reeftronics. He e-mailed me back, we set up date and time, he connected to my computer and fixed everything the right way. I made a donation to reeftronics and I am one very happy camper.
I only wish I knew about him two days earlier and I might have had less gray hair lol.
