Hi Melinda, have you checked to see if the network you're on, is in fact YOUR own home router, by matching its router name to the one showing in your iDevice? (shown in the iDevice's "Settings - WiFi - WiFi Networks" area)

Also, that the IP address you list here http://192.168.1.8:8080 is the one showing in the App to use?
I mention this last question, because another post from someone else had the exact same IP address, and I don't want you to think it's the same for everyone.
Hey Andy,
I found some info on the Cisco site that may help you setup the router Firewall, and some other info regarding that router.

It seems it may also have a built-in VoIP ATA. Which means you may have an included way to attach standard phones to allow the router to connect them for Internet Phone service, from SIP providers.

***Edit***
I may be wrong about the built-in ATA. ... When I saw it mentioned ...
ADSL over POTS , I thought it meant it connected to Plain Old Telephone Systems (POTS) by VoIP SIP, but realize now it's a DSL modem connection over normal phone lines. (I still may be wrong, this is why getting the actual Owners Manual is important) ... :-) ...

Anyway, I found a PDF showing some Firewall aspects that the router has, and I may be correct about the limited access it defaults to.

They call it Intrusion Prevention Services (IPS) and Content Filtering.
In addition to the Zone-Based or CBAC Firewall options.
There's a PDF about it ... Here ...
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/colla...

Also, on the main web-page showing that PDF, there are Flash-Based videos showing how to configure the Firewall, and other settings. The iDevice doesn't have Adobe Flash, so you'll need a real computer with Adobe Flash player to view it.

Cisco has software links to assist, at the links near the bottom of the page ...here...
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/colla...

There may also be software updates you can download there, to make sure you have the latest firmware on that router.
It's near its "end-of-life" for Cisco support, so get what you can, now, before they stop support for it.

This Router is very nice, but may take some time to setup the way you need it.
It is, in fact, a Corporate Router. :-)
Hi Andy,
Yes, it seems they are at least connected to the same network.

But I'm suspicious of the IP numbers themselves.
I'm not sure, but I've always been told the internal IP addresses with 10.10.xxx.xxx
were corporate type addresses, set to be limited, and private.
(limiting access between connected devices to {within} that network.)

I'm thinking this is what Enrique was saying to others, owning certain models of Cisco routers, that the router can create a "guest" network that's limited between devices, and a standard network, with all functionality.

Normally, a standard network IP group would start with 192.168.xxx.xxx

If you have any documentation for the router, that explains the settings, or if you can look around your Graphic User Interface web-browser access to its settings, search for network types that this router can create, or privacy settings for the network created already, and maybe you'll find some help text within, or actual setting(s) dealing with a Firewall, or Privacy Tab screen.

When Enrique, or Amber returns, they'll be able to check my "theory" if they're familiar with your Cisco model#.

But, if you have a PDF of your User Guide, ... that would be easier, ... to simply look-up the features and see if I'm right... Or just upload it for me or the others to view, and help with the settings.
Hello Annette,
That option is there to make it easy to receive a larger number of photos without having to click on each thumbnail link separately.

You can "right-mouse-button" click over that link, and choose "Save Target As.." to direct that zip file to a folder of your choice, on your hard drive, or USB Flash Drive device, then, after it's where you want to put it, uncompress the zip file in that area, by clicking it, and all your photos are revealed at once.

If you just had a few to transfer, you can always select each "thumbnail" link for high or medium resolution, individually, without having it zip them into one large file.

If there's any other reason, or option I may have forgotten, Enrique will clarify when he returns.
:-)
That's understandable ... :)
It happened to me too, in this other thread ... :-) ... Momentary Brain Freeze!

Ha ha, I'm still slightly embarrassed with that one ... :)
Hi Andy, yes only one side (the sender) will show its IP#(and):port combination, but I was hoping you'd also mention the IP address #'s as well, so I can see if it looks like it's connecting to a valid IP#, or a "limited connectivity" address.

Also, when you reverse the device that is sending to the other one,
... what that IP# is on that other device that's now sending

It should start with http://
then the IP# groups (4 total groups, with the dots between each)
then the port :8080

I'm curious if they match the first 3 IP # groups on each device, and what they are.
Yo, Enrique, ... are you sleepy ...?
Don't confuse your elders, ... LOL ... :-D

"...(note that there is a semicolon ':' before the 8080 and not a period)..."

Don't you mean "colon" ? ... Not semi-colon...!

:-)

Have you had your morning coffee yet?
It may be a firewall issue with the router.

Can you see the exact IP:port it's using on each device? ... Not just the name.

... if you reverse which one is the sender, you'll see the others IP:port address, too, not just the device name.

I wanted to confirm something.
One extra question I forgot to ask you ...
Do you get an IP:port address or device name of the iDevices showing at all, on the App, or is it saying no devices found using the WiFi option?

If BlueTooth works, I agree with you, so too should WiFi, and the router may be blocking it, some how.
Yes, very possible it's a setting in the router, blocking normal connection.

Several things you can look for are ...
- The MAC address filter being on that stops unlisted (allowed) device MAC addresses form connecting.

- Having "Filter Internet NAT Redirection" checked ON ... in your routers settings
(this is the FIREWALL setting of most routers)

I mention all this, and more, in another post ... Here ...

Enrique may know this router, but if not, and you have the Owners Manual (PDF) you could upload it to RapidShare.com for free, so he can view it if he's not familiar with the settings.
(or send it to him at his eMail address, he'll tell you where if needed)

One extra point, make sure the App screen remains showing on the iDevice's while you're trying to connect to each other. - If you switch to another screen, on one of the devices, before the transfer starts, the other device will not see the connection address showing in the App screen.
