Doesn't set up although a later model did
922541
About a month ago I bought the later model (SANS 410), and have no memory of how long it took to set up, which to me means it was fast and simple.  It plays nicely about 30 feet from my router because it is in a room with a booster (router is Apple extreme and booster is Apple express).  I am running iTunes 11 on the latest iMac, released November 30, 2012.  So far so good -- even is controllable from my SAMSUNG phone -- who needs an iPhone with its miniature screen?  But I digress.
So SONY dropped in my mailbox a link to refurbished equipment on sale, including the SANS 400, which was released at $250 or so, dropped about $50 when the 410 came out, and was now going, refurbished, for $99 w/free shipping.  Hey, why not?  I've got more room and am ready to buy more Apple expresses as the need arises.  Except I can't get this one to play, even a few inches from my router.  What makes this a real mystery is the Eyeconnect application (which somebody here has complained about, but it's free so what's the problem?) "sees" this speaker, even revealed its IP address, if that's what you call that number whose digits are separated by periods.  Further more, after finally understanding the instructions SONY emailed me (more detailed than the instruction manual that came with the speaker -- or at least easier to follow), I got the LINK light to run green, which according to the literature means the speaker is now connected wirelessly.

BUT, my iTunes does not recognize it.  I have a report/question into Eyeconnect, after a conversation with a really nice guy who tried to help.  (SONY's phone help was courteous, but just led to emailing me the instructions referenced above).  In a few days if it doesn't work I have to ship it back to them for a refund.  Hope they don't give me any sass about returns -- I've had a lot of SONY stuff and I like the company, its products and support.

This unit took a lot to get it to work correctly. I went through all the set up directions and could not get it to work at all or it was sporadic. It would keep cutting out and I would have to reset it. After spending a few days changing settings, I managed to get it to work. I never had any more issues after that. It does have a nice feature where you can save the settings to your hard drive and reinstall them if you have to reboot the unit. The unit has worked flawlessly since I got the settings to work.

I bought several of these before, never had any issue setting it up, for some reason it will not link due a password issue. I wish it would work, I no longer have the box to return it. :(

Well I'm not an expert but I can't set it up. My brother-in-law with some more expertise in this issue also can't do it. The design is pretty awesome and I think it could solve all my problems, if I can put it to work.

I have setup 1 controller so far which seems to work great once I was able to get it set up. You have to make sure you are pointing it directly at the box and make sure nothing is blocking it's path.

Update 2: Finally got it to work again. Despite improvements in Bluetooth over the years, it's still a finicky protocol. I blame Bluetooth, ChromeOS, and Microsoft in combination for my problem. Here's how I fixed it with ChromeOS: Go to Settings, search for Bluetooth, and a page will show up tht shows you what can be or is connected. The Microsoft mouse showed up in my display. I deleted it by selecting it and clicking on the "x" on the right side. Then I restarted ChromeOS, so it would "forget" the old settings on the mouse. When I started it up again, I selected the mouse to pair with, and it did. Keeping my fingers crossed that it will continue to work for a while.

Update 1: Worked for several months, then got iffy connecting, now doesn't seem to want to connect at all. Tried everything -- new batteries (it was turned off most of the time), turned it on before and after the Chromebook, used pairing button and not, etc etc. Disappointed with long term use. Will go in the spare parts bin.

Original review:
Got this for use with an Acer C720 Chromebook, and it worked right out of the box. Well, OK, it did once I installed the batteries and turned it on. It wasn't that long ago that Bluetooth was a pain in the neck, so it was nice not to have any hassle at all. The mouse is obviously much heavier than a USB one because of the batteries. I see the combination of it and the Chromebook as being most useful on a desktop or table, both when traveling or at home. If you have the computer in your lap, the built-in touchpad is a better option. Bottom line: Highly recommended.

Have not been able to get this modem/router work as it should with Centurylink DSL. My old one did but this one is being difficult to setup and make work wirelessly. Obsolete and limited instructions on how to setup.

I know its 2 years later, but mine never worked.

I couldn't even get the thing set up because it was stuck in the reboot loop. It would just keep rotating and would only stop for a few seconds before starting again. Several online blogs state this is a common problem with this model. I also have an older model of this camera that works great (FI8910W). Stick with the older model.

I bought this NIB from a local auction and tried to connect it to my wi-fi.  I had a TP-Link router and spent a lot of time on the phone with the tech support guys at Honeywell.  They were very helpful, but I was still not able to get it to connect.  It always gave me the error during connection that it cannot connect, make sure that DHCP is enabled on the router.  Of course it is, I have 5 other devices on it and they don't have issues.  I tried opening port 80 and 443 on the router for the thermostat at a specific IP address and it still didn't work.  I decided to go to a local store and pickup the cheapest router on the list they provide that say they work.  It was the NetGear WNR1000100NAS.  I spent abouot 5 minutes configuring it to match my old router without turning on the two ports.  It connected right up.  I have my security set to WPA-PSK just like the other router, no specific ports open, no DHCP address table for this MAC address, just simple DHCP enabled and voila!

Good thermostat for the first couple of days and the first day being connected to the net.  I will check in periodically to update my results.  Also, I have the old unit Date Code 1423.

I am writing to let others know that if you have the IntelliTouch (automated controller) you will need to be sure to have current "firmware" on it, or the IntelliPH will not work (you get a communication link failure error).
To get the IntelliPH working, I have had to disconnect the communication link between the IntelliChlor and the IntelliTouch. So now the IntelliChlor and IntelliPH are connected together but no longer hooked up to the IntelliTouch. This just means I need to go outside to adjust the IntelliChlor (or see its status). This is really a problem since you don't normally need to adjust anything once the setup is complete.

The problem I was having with the IntelliPH was that the System Status Light was continuously "Red". A Red light means no Cell detected or Communication Link failure. When the status light is red, the IntelliPH will not automatically inject acid.

Pentair Support was very helpful. We determined that the IntelliTouch unit (about 10 years old) did not have the newer firmware that supports the IntelliPH ( my IntelliTouch firmware was created before the IntelliPH was invented). Unfortunately a homeowner can't update the firmware without expensive firmware-installation software so I would need to pay Pentair Tech to come out and upgrade my firmware. I decided to just leave the IntelliChlor and IntelliPH "out of the IntelliTouch system" for now. It works fine this way.

It didn't work...or maybe I'm using it w/ the wrong equipment.
