CyberQ WiFi Web Service Info (Super Nerdy)

That looks great! How long will it be before we can get it through iTunes?

[appdesigngeeks]

Esselle,

I am hoping it will be ready around Monday or Tuesday. Apple is usually a 6-7 day wait period after an app has been submitted. Android is only about an hour.

I will post something on the forum the minute it is approved.

Thanks

What do you get when you try to use the public IP address of your router from a device on the internet?

Hey Ron, Yes. I can access it on xxx.123 address. When you say public IP address of the router I am confused. In Airport Utility there is the IPv4 address listed- which is the same address as when I type in "IP" in Google search, So I am assuming this is my public IP address; in Airport Utility there is listed "Router address" . When I type in either address into a URL field I get a time out error.
Is the DNS Server address the address I should be concerned about?
Thanks

No. The DNS server address is the address your router uses to find stuff on the internet. When you type in www.google.com the DNS server translates that to an IP address the belongs to Google.

I don't have an Airport so I can't tell you which address is the right one, but using your browser go to http://www.whatismyip.com/ and it will tell you what your public IP address is. that's the address you want to put into your browser when you are outside of your network (on your phone on 4G, for example). If the port forwarding works you should see the Guru web UI.

If you want to PM me the result from http://www.whatismyip.com/ I can also try it from here.

Just to add a little more detail, it turned out that Mccaf's ISP (Cox) blocks incoming requests on port 80. This is fairly common.

Sorry, I'm confused. If the cyberq http daemon doesn't support ssl, how can you state the password isn't sent in the clear?
When I spoke to BBQ guru, they said CPU wasn't powerful enough to handle SSL and still perform well.

[appdesigngeeks]

Supercazzola,

If you run the Tool Fiddler and read through the packets you will see that that header information that contains the Username and Password is encrypted. So to gain access to your Wifi Guru they would need the Username and Password. Having the Username and Password encrypted is different than SSL securing all of they traffic to and from your device. The username and password is base64 encoded.

Your router can also block all traffic inbound, except for the one from your phone based on the mac address or ip address of your phone.

I wonder what the chances are of someone actually running a packet sniffing tool to monitor your cooking temps :)

Wow free , I thought for sure you'd be charging for it , not that I'm trying to change your mind , is it an ipad app also ?

[spedly]

Nice looking app. I used to use an older version of your app on my old iPhone but I'm now an Android guy. I'll definitely be keeping an eye out on Google Play for this new version.
