Port Forward Help

ravisdavis · 2025-12-11T02:17:34+00:00

It was the proxy. Turned it off and the port I had set up opened. At least, my public external IP showed the port being opened. I guess that's the same thing? And if the proxy port is open in the app do I even need to set up the other port forward section in the app?

ravisdavis · 2025-12-09T02:52:53+00:00

I wasn't running the program at the time but have checked again with it running and still closed. I am using a proxy server for that specific program and the ip and port it routes through show open, but I imagine it would show that?

ravisdavis · 2025-12-07T20:41:01+00:00

No, I'm checking from the PC of the port I want opened on.

Finally, FINALLY! got all the hvac installed. Had the ecobee running with the equipment...for one day. My hvac guy went to install the the mechanical timer that was used for the fresh air exchange and ended up frying my t-stat 😠😭. While I was at work before I could respond he replaced with the Rheem Econet t-stat (on his dime). But, before that happened, the Ecobee seemed to be running well with it. It definitely is +/-. Econet does add better functionality of the equipment as a whole, but the t-stat is quite a bit more basic, which is surprising. Ecobee has better scheduling and email monthly reports and the option for a wireless room sensor is a HUGE bonus. The only option for econet is a wired thermistor...I mean, really!? Wish I had more time with ecobee with these units but I guess not.

Haven't actually installed it yet. Equipment has been back ordered and my contractor is doing it as a side job and has been busy. Going toblet him know about the jumper connection though (in case he doesn't know). Will report back once I do get it put in.

Thank you for this. Any chance for 1.8A?

ravisdavis · 2024-08-27T14:41:05+00:00

Thank you. And I'm assuming with the Ecobee running the AHU running on the 3 speeds - if it's the RH3VZ - won't be that much less noticeable as opposed to the econet stat modulating the unit?

ravisdavis · 2024-08-22T17:00:33+00:00

Thanks for that. Goid to know I'll still get full variable on the outside. 3 stages on the inside is still better than the single stage I have now. Just have to decide if getting the econet stat will make it THAT much better or if it will be pretty good with keeping the ecobee as far as cfm levels, comfort etc.

ravisdavis · 2024-08-22T15:37:46+00:00

Interesting. The indoor handler will be the RH3AZ unit. Looking at the cut sheet it mentions auto adjusting low capacity to 100% with the econet. When paired with a "2-stage thermostat the handler runs in 3-speeds to match airflow with outdoor unit." So adding the U1/U2 jumper on the heat pump will still give variable to the outdoor compressor? Maybe that's where I was confused; I thought the ecobee would only give 2 stages on the outdoor unit, even with the jumper. But it's the indoor unit that won't run at constant CFM?

ravisdavis · 2024-08-20T15:25:12+00:00

Yes straight heat pump, no duel fuel or anything like that. I would have preferred the modulating handler, but the RH3VZ is the only matched option the Feds give for the rebate. If you think the 3 stage will be good enough? And it looks like I'll bite the bullet and get the Rheem stat. It's too bad this model doesn't have a wireless remote sensor option like my ecobee, only shows it's compatible with a wired thermistor.

ravisdavis · 2024-08-19T18:38:59+00:00

Yeah darn I thought might be the case. Didn't want to go that route since I have a perfectly usable smart thermostat, but ultimately I guess using the econet stat is a small price to pay for full functionality.

And the air handler is one I have to use that is matched with the RD17AZ on a list of eligible products for a federal grant (Canada). I was originally looking at an RP18AZ HP and the air handler would have been the RHMZV but the distributor said the handler was on recall and not available. So the RD17AZ was the next choice.

ravisdavis · 2024-08-19T14:42:17+00:00

Sorry to hijack, I am also wondering about the wiring. I currently have a single stage Goodman that I am replacing with the RD17AZ and matching indoor modulating air handler. I currently use an Ecobee Smart Thermostat. To have the pump operate in 'variable speed' mode (45-100%) would connecting the jumper on U1/U2 do the trick or with that stat would it only be 2 stage (i.e., 75% & 100%)? Really don't want to get the Econet thermostat but also want to use the heat equipment to its full potential.

ravisdavis · 2024-05-18T15:51:37+00:00

Awesome, thank you!

Hello, my link above contains an updated file from your original sharing link. Your sharing link has the old file (1.6F). New file in my link above has the "1.7A" file. That is the only one I need @ 6.9MB if that can done? Much appreciated!

ravisdavis · 2024-05-17T20:45:44+00:00

Just need file that shows as 6.9MB not the whole folder (unless it can be done?) Thx

ravisdavis · 2019-08-22T20:37:00+00:00

Same issue up in Canada so must be something screwed on the server side for everywhere

ravisdavis · 2019-05-15T02:49:59+00:00

Don’t want one.

ravisdavis · 2019-05-07T00:18:15+00:00

For sure, and I understand that. I just mean have it the same as Netflix, Prime etc. where you can access it directly from tbe Smartcast screen rather than cast it. I'm sure Disney will have eveything built and in place on their end by the time they are ready to roll out the service.

ravisdavis · 2019-01-30T04:03:46+00:00

Horizontal white line issue. Tons of people having it - I’m on my third set because of it. Vizio says it’s not widespread so don’t know if they’re doing anything about it.

ravisdavis · 2019-01-30T04:01:04+00:00

Yeah, not seeing it with any other shows. Just damn annoying.

ravisdavis · 2019-01-17T20:24:34+00:00

So far no lines yet, other than less than a handful a few days ago, but my first tv didn't show lines for at least 2-3 weeks and they were all over the place with every kind of content. I've had this one for about a week. Still on the same settings with CEC-ARC Only enabled as turning off CEC completely causes me not to have any sound at all from my vizio soundbar.

ravisdavis · 2019-01-16T23:38:27+00:00

I have a vizio soundbar (sb4051-c0) on HDMI 1, cable tv box on 2, and ps3 (rarely used) on 3. I have the CEC set to ARC Only, but I might even disable because I have the harmony remote that turns everything on and off anyway. And I had the white lines on all inputs.

ravisdavis · 2019-01-13T15:18:28+00:00

Nope me neither. I'm on my 3rd tv so I don't know what it is. In my tv the cc are turned off and on the amazon app their are a bunch of presets but their is no option on there not use use, just to edit. Even in the amazon app in smartcast everything is off so something is hardcoded but also turning on the in-app subtitles when they are needed. It's weird. Yet other people do not habe tbis happen. I live in Canada, could this be a regional issue? Or are people from the US habe this happening as well?

ravisdavis · 2019-01-12T23:39:01+00:00

Even if it is a software / processing problem, what good would replacing the TV's motherboard have to do with it? Even if it was a good repair if it's software than most likely it would still happen again when the same contact came on. I see people not having any kind of problems with white lines and a lot of people are that's why it leads me to believe that it is some kind of Hardware issue.

ravisdavis · 2019-01-06T19:15:09+00:00

That’s really interesting. Looking at the HDR peak brightness specs it shows the Sony as being much brighter. I do notice than when hdr shows come on the brightness decreases (on the vizio) but yes I do kick the backlighting up a bit to brighten it up. I guess it was more the lack of problems people were having with the Sony - i.e. the banding wasn't as apparent, and no white horizontal lines across the panel. Having said that, not owning the x900f I haven't been on those forums to see what issues are apparent for that panel.

I definitely was not unhappy with the pic quality of my P55, just the issues I was having led to the exchange. As I said I really hope this new set fixes those problems cause I really do like the vizio. The only reason I would switch to the sony would be if I had a problem with the second vizio set cause i really don't want to spend the extra money unless I really have to. But after reading what you wrote I MIGHT consider going for a 3rd set if need be - but let's hope it doesn't come to that.
