Intel Edison WiFi connection refused via browser


I'm using Arduino IDE with Intel Edison and upload sketch from IDE examples: Examples -> WiFI (Edison) -> SimpleWebServerWiFi. Just updated with password and network name. I can add code from sketch here but here is nothing special. And it seems that connection works fine:

Attempting to connect to Network named: L&N
SSID: L&N
IP Address: 192.168.1.102
signal strength (RSSI):-39 dBm
To see this page in action, open a browser to http://192.168.1.102

But when I try to open http://192.168.1.102/ in browser, result always is the same (no matter which is wifi network or which device):

This site can’t be reached

192.168.1.102 refused to connect.

Any ideas how to solve this?


Solution

  • The avoid this issue use any other port instead of 80. Update line in code in the sketch WiFiServer server(80); with WiFiServer server(81);.

    After running the sketch, url address also could be updated with the port number for web browser. For example if your IP address is 123.234.23.12 - add the :81 at the end: http://123.234.23.12:81.
