Hi Lonny

Thanks for the reply. I tried what you’ve suggested but it’s made no difference – the RTC is still not being set off the network.

(We’re using Vodafone in the UK which I believe supports NITZ)

Thanks for the info – solved both my problems.

For anyone interested there’s quite a good description of whats going on here.

Thanks for the info. The problem with the IP address was that it was being blocked by our firewall which I didn’t realise until our IT Engineer came back who recognised 192.168.2.1 wouldn’t work on our network 🙁

We managed to change the IP address and it then worked fine over Ethernet. Connecting with the Debug cable worked fine also. (both on PuTTy)

Also got the example basic-app.jar running – only after realising the /dist directory needed to be copied as well!

One thing I’ve noticed with this site is that when going thru the Introduction, Prerequisites, Getting Started etc you wouldn’t realise that there’s a Multitech SDK/Java path to getting up and running. In fact I only realised there was an SDK/Java option when looking in the News section.

Maybe in the Introduction a description of the SDK/Java could be described with its own Prerequites, Getting Started etc sections – it would definitely help newbies like me!

Bryan – I should have mentioned the dev board has the MT100EOCG-H5 fitted.
