Re: Re: cbus Wiser config agony

It's only a guess, and I'm hoping it's not a red herring as I'm only
going by the option title , but if your Wiser dot remains red even when
clicked on then I think it's a possibility

Not sure you need a complete factory reset (if such a thing is possible)
but if you alter the Wiser IP back to the default 192.168.2.1   and then
alter a PC that is attached directly to the Wiser to be on that same
subnet then I think the default project should now load OK. ( If you
have Wiser WiFi enabled then you could also setup the Wiser to issue you
a suitable IP address using DHCP but in your case I suspect you likely
have a DHCP server elsewhere so maybe not an option).

The default project will likely moan that it can't attach to C-Bus which
I don't think will impede you but  if it does then also reset the CNI IP
address to 192.168.2.2.  Hopefully you can get to that 'project update'
option then...... and then undo all the above changes once again   ..grrrr

PS When the Wiser says it take 2 mins to reboot - it really does take
that long - if you watch the lights it's well over a minute before the
thing does a reboot.
