changed internet provider and reeflink no longer works with my lights. any suggestions?

Dont your Explorer.

I can never get thing to work right with explorer browser. Try Fire Fox or Chrome works for me. Or it maybe your modem or routers port may be blocked. Good luck!

ecotech says reeflink will not work with a dynamic IP so I think I'm out of luck. anyone want a reeflink?

So they are saying you need a static IP?
They explain exactly why?

kevinsmixed90 · May 25, 2015

yes. they say static IP> and no they don't say why. do you know of any other way to connect to my computer? I need to make changes to my lights and cannot. sorry it took so long to respond, I did not see your question until just now. thank you

Setting up Port Forwarding

Important Note
Opening ports in the modem firewall can leave your computers exposed to malicious attacks. AT&T is not responsible for potential attacks made to your computer systems or damage resulting from an attack caused by opening a port.

To open a port for a user-defined application on 2Wire gateways, do the following:

Open an Internet browser.
Type http://192.168.1.254 in the address bar.
Click the Go button or press the Enter key on the keyboard.
Click the Settings tab.
Click on the Broadband subtab.
Under Internet Details, locate the IP Address field.
1. If your IP address starts with a 10.x.x.x, please visit our AT&T Port Forwarding Tool to request, view and remove your Port Forwarding assignments, as well as automatically configure your local AT&T provided modem/gateway with the touch of a button.
2. If your IP address does not start with 10.x.x.x, please continue to step 7.
Click on the Firewall subtab.
Click the Applications, Pinholes and DMZ link.
Under Select a computer, click the device name or IP address of the device you wish to open the port for. Alternatively, if you don't see the IP or device name listed, you can enter it in the Enter IP address field and click Choose.
Under Edit firewall settings for this computer, select the Allow individual application(s) radio button.
In the event you're setting up Port Forwarding for an application, select the application in the list and then click the Addbutton. If you can't find the application or are setting up Port Forwarding for a device, do the following:
1. Click the Add a new user-defined application link.
2. Type a name for the application or device in the Application Profile Name field.
3. Click the radio button next to the appropriate Protocol for the application in the Protocol field.
4. Type the port(s) you wish to open in the From and To fields.
  It is recommended to create a separate user-defined application/device entry for each port as opposed to using a port range. In this case the port number should be the same in the From and To fields.
5. Protocol Timeout and Map to Host Port fields should be left blank unless you wish to define these manually.
6. Click the Application Type drop down menu and select type of application for which you're setting up port forwarding. If you're setting up Port Forwarding for a device or other type of application not listed, the field can be left as is with the default "-" selected.
7. Click the Add to List button.
  If there are more user-defined applications that need to be created, repeat step 11.
8. When you've finished creating user-defined applications, click on the Back button.
9. The user-defined application(s) you created will now show in the list. Choose the user-defined application(s) you created and click the Add button.
When you've finished and your selections show under Hosted Applications, click the Save button at the bottom of the screen.
Congratulations, you've set up port forwarding on your AT&T provided modem/gateway.
