Am I reading right? This needs to be connected via Ethernet cable? It cannot connect to network wirelessly? That's crazy!

Well, it's not so crazy considering the price. There's a wifi version. I don't see it on Amazon right now. Here's a link: http://www.sprinklerwarehouse.com/IrrigationCaddyW1-p/irrigationcaddyw1.htm

I have been able to get the controller to work using wifi. They now include the part needed to have the controller talk to your router. When I bought mine I had to purchase that separately (Netgear). I think you can also set the controller remotely though I haven't done this yet. I'm still not happy with this product. It has so glitches that I haven't worked out - can't properly name the zones, for example.

If you are highly tech-savvy you might be able to. You can contact the vendor for help. I ran Ethernet cables for both of mine because we had trouble getting a wireless connection to work reliably.

There's really no reason for them to be outside. Irrigation control lines can go up to 800 feet. I have all of my electronics gear like this on a 2nd shelf that I put in the top of a hallway closet. Microcells, MiCasa, Airports, and soon to be 2x irrigation caddies all live there tucked away and neatly out of sight.

There is no wireless built into the IrrigationCaddy - it only has the Ethernet port. But, I connected a wireless repeater to the IC, and that connects to my main WiFi router.

You have to use the cable supplied...it isn't wireless. The cable supplied has different connectors on each end.

This is not wireless. You connect it with an Ethernet cable. There would also be heat dissipation issues.

Cindy, you're advice is the only solution I found to connecting this printer wirelessly, thank you, we had used the printer hard wired for about a year, but wanted to move it across the room, and I couldn't find any mention of how to connect the printer, I had entered the password correctly but didn't realize that I needed to re-enter the access point name manually even though the printer already listed it as an option, this advice was a life saver Also, when switching from direct wired to wireless it's confusing on the computer, even after connecting the printer via the printer control panel, I was still getting an error message saying the printer was offline, and finally figured out that the printer listed in the control panel on the pc, was theoretically a separate printer, the "old" printer, the computer recognizing it as hard wired and seeing it added wirelessly as a new printer, now named in the control panel separately as "Canon MP560 WS" instead of "Canon MP560", but again Windows didn't automatically add the wirelessly connected printer, it had to be added, and looked to be the "old" printer you're advice was most helpful and the only place I saw it listed, no less, but even after clearing the hurdle of setting up the connection on the printer itself, I still had a ways to go

I'm sorry, but I dont use the ethernet; I use it wireless. I hope you find the answer your looking for. Regards.

No, it should connect via wireless connection. This particular repeater failed miserably. It never did what I expected it to do. I bought another from Belkin which worked well.

May also be able to use a network cable to plug into your router. I would just plug it it in to the network to see what happens. How do you currently have it connected? Or is this going to be new?

How does everyone solve this I wonder! It's a real pain because wireless access points don't generally have a useable Ethernet connection. I ended up buying a devolo plug starter kit that sends the Internet around the house electric circuit. It was pricey (nearly £100 - am in uk) but it literally plugged in and worked.

Wireless driver is already installed. You need to sync it with your wireless router using Ethernet cable. You can do other ways as described in instructions, but it took me long time and was unsuccessful after all. With Ethernet cable was quick and easy. I have the printer for almost a year already and it works good.I tried to do wireless and manual, but took me long time and did not work after. To save time and effort use an Ethernet cable.

This is solely used to connect devices that only take Ethernet cables to a wireless network. So you would need a wireless network set up for this device to connect to.

Ethernet is wired. This is wireless. If you are asking if this will connect to a wireless router then yes it will. Also if you're asking if it will be able to communicate to wired devices on the same network then the answer is also yes.

no this is a modem that connects to a router u will need a wireless router. you would connect the cable to the modem than run a ethernet cable from the modem to your wireless router, then from there another eternet cable to your computer

There is an ethernet port for a hardwired connection. You may want to look at a USB wireless device that will allow you to establish a wireless connection.

It is saying that it can not connect to your network. You may want to check to see if you have a WIRED configuration setup on the system, if so disable, it could be looking to connect via wired before connecting over the wireless configuration.

You must use a LAN cable out of the box. To add wireless internet you must buy a separate adaptor.

There are a number of comments in the reviews about the lack of documentation, no argument there. If you read the reviews, there are a couple (including mine) that give pretty good detailed instructions. I found additional information doing a quick web search. Basically you need to connect to it with an ethernet cable, then configure the wireless settings, unplug the cable, reboot the camera and it should connect to your wireless network. If you provide more details about your issue I can provide a more detailed answer.

Yes the one I have has several ways,you should be able to connect by ethernet cable wire,phone line,or better yet get you a good router from Amazon.com and go wireless,by its wi fi,thats what I did so I can take my lap top any where I want,even out side up to approx 100ft. I hope this heloed you.
