Harri Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Old post, but I've been through this exact same issue so may help others. This error message is very deceiving, it has actually connected but in a lot of cases (in my experience) it shows that error message. Go through the steps as you did before and wait for the same error to present itself. Wait two minutes after this message pops up then close the message, as well as the browser window/tab. Attach the ethernet cable from alarm panel to the module and wait another minute or so. At this point, it should work! 1 Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/42563-trying-to-connect-eaton-i-wifi01-to-a-sky-router/#findComment-493602 Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadiffusion Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Vonets-wireless-Bridge-Booster-VAP11N-300/dp/B07K6LQSVK/ref=sr_1_8?keywords=vonets&qid=1578852156&s=computers&sr=1-8 Look familiar What's interesting is that TBF when you buy the Eaton version, you do get a nicely made 5V converter, that feels quality. But the specs INSIST it can take up to 15V DC anyway.... I've not had the guts to try myself, and use a 12V > 5V converter myself every time. So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/42563-trying-to-connect-eaton-i-wifi01-to-a-sky-router/#findComment-493604 Share on other sites More sharing options...
