I just upgraded to a iPhone5. I used a iPhone4 or my PC with no issues.
Now I can't access or ping the 2412N controller module.
Tried reset on the module, changing IP address, and unlink the lighting modules etc to no affect.I just get a searching Icon in browser using IP or "I'm Home" button from "http://smartlinc.smarthome.com"
Any ideas are appreciated. |

| From the information provided, I dont think its a Mobilinc problem... It sounds like a network problem. You SHOULD be able to ping and browse your Smartlinc. If you are unable to do so, any program will have the same problem. |

| For initial setup, make sure you are connecting to the Internet via your home wifi, not via your cell phone's data network or a neighbor's wifi. You have to be connected to your home wifi for the phone to see your SmartLinc when you go to the SmartLinc.smarthome.com site and click 'I'm at home'. |

Here is more info on my setup. MobiLinc Pro was working for a long time on my iPhone 4 and my desktop browser (IE9 or Firefox). I just upgraded my phone to iPhone5 and it will not find the SmartLinc. Browser does the same.
I have everything on a "Wired" network and only the iPhone communicates through the router's WiFi. The phone works and sync's and has internet access with no issues. There has been no changes with my wiring. All Cat5e. I did try a reset with no joy. Using Windows 7 64bit Professional with a Linksys E3000 router (Getting ready to upgrade soon) |

If you cannot access the SmartLinc from a browser, then it's unlikely that any other interface will be able to access it. So, that's what you need to concentrate on.
Ping is the clue. If you cannot ping the SmartLinc, then that's not the correct address or it's broken. Can you find it from your router menu? All the SmartLincs I've come across have MAC addresses that begin with 00:0E:F3 |

| Don't know if it is related or not, but I read about a bug where the iPhone 5 connects to cellular data network despite showing wifi connection. |

| It may be related to your issue, but not to my query. |

Sorry, didn't mean to offend / interrupt in the wrong way.
It may be related to the OP's issue. There is a wifi bug on the iPhone 5 ( maybe even in iOS 6 in general ) which is the only change he made, and most people are not aware of the bug. So, it is just an extra point to consider. Obviously, if he can't reach the SmartLinc form any browser, something is wrong along your lines of thinking. And you're right that the first thing to do when you can't reach a certain device, is try it with something else, etc.

| You are both right, IMHO. The phone bug may have initiated the problem, but the OP may have introduced other conflicts while troubleshooting. I, too, would be anxious to confirm the SmartLinc is online and still using the LAN IP expected by the router before pursuing other lines of inquiry. |
