Hey AmazeCPK,
when you connect a HDMI monitor to the Onefinity Controller (and there is an ethernet cable between Onefinity Controller and remote computer), are you seeing an IP address on top of the page, like this?
The method described in the video uses will automatically establish a ‘link-local’ IP address with the zero-configuration networking that is installed on Onefinity Controller. This means, you would see a 169.254.x.x address on top of the display (or when typing ‘ifconfig’ on the CLI), as shown in the image above. Is this the case when you connect with an Ethernet cable?
If so, you can type this IP address into the address bar of your web browser on the remote computer, and you should see the Onefinity Controller User Interface (UI) and everythings works then.
Additionally, the Onefinity Controller offers Name Service Discovery to resolve addressing with the name ‘onefinity.local’. It does this with the Linux common implementation “Avahi” that uses mDNS. However this is not supported on older Windows OS.
Are you using Windows XP/Vista/7/8? In this case you got to install an additional package for the Name Service Discovery. This will then allow you to simply type “http://onefinity.local” into the address bar of the web browser of the remote computer.
But simply using the Onefinity Controller’s IP address (as shown above) by typing it into the address bar of the web browser of the remote computer should always work.
