Sonore opticalRendu

[kukiman]

Hello! 

 

Just received my opticalmodule and opticalrendu. The unit is stuck at orange led. I plugged the whole set in place of my microrendu unit. Microrendu can register orbiter just fine. It is plugged to an Apple airport express.

 

OM is using 5v (Tried 7V as well), light is green. The Ethernet port doesn’t have green or orange flashing at the Ethernet cable port. But the airport express is functioning with microrendu fine.

 

OR is using SGC 7v supply and turns from red to orange and never green. I know it could mean it’s stuck at having no Internet access?

 

I checked the optical cable, both side can see one red light from the two ports. I suppose it’s one way in one way out.

 

Power cycled my router and airport express and then turned off my OR unplugged SD card and plug it back in. Turned off my firewall gadget. Still stuck at orange.

 

anything I can do?

 

thanks in advance! Really eager to get it going 🙇🏻‍♂️

Happy to report that Optical module is working now. Changed to another Ethernet hub and immediately got lights at the Ethernet port. 🙇🏻‍♂️ For some reason optical module doesn’t work with airport express.
