Hello,

We utlized the project below;

https://github.com/Rallare/fw-nrfconnect-nrf/tree/nrf9160_samples/samples/nrf9160/http

and its working with a resolved ip for google.

Thanks so much for your help

Hello,

Thanks for the reponse again!

I tried the UDP sample you shared, below is the results;

*** Booting Zephyr OS build v2.1.99-ncs1  ***
getaddrinfo err: 0
client_fd: 2
bind err: 0
sendto ret: 48

Do you think it may be the sim? We are using a sim from iBasis with ICCID

893108001907353225

Kindly let us know.

Regards

Hi,

The AT commands do not include any IP related commands, unfortunately. UDP and TCP tests must be performed on a socket level.

Kind regards,

Håkon

[quote userid="2115" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/58556/basic-http-get-example/237702"]Have you tested if TCP works at all in your current network?[/quote]

could you provide may be an AT command to test a TCP connection? I tried to get an AT command for a ping, but i could not find one at the reference site.

the mqtt_sample even with the resolved IP does not work.

I will try the UDP sample you sent.

Thanks and Regards.

P.S kindly help with a tool to check if TCP works on a network.

Regards

Hi,

I tested setting the same IP in https_client sample, and had no problems connecting afterwards. However; I am on a completely different network than you.

[quote user="smauelGIS"]Please is there another config we need to do? Or a hardware plug we need to push?[/quote]

The behavior you see is highly likely inherited from the network that you are connecting to.

Have you tested if TCP works at all in your current network?

Did you try mqtt_simple, where you set the IP manually in prj.conf? mqtt.eclipse.org currently resolves to 137.135.83.217, so that would be:

CONFIG_MQTT_BROKER_HOSTNAME="137.135.83.217"

If that fails, try an UDP based sample, like this one (Change define NTP_HOST to 129.240.2.6):

Kind regards,

Thanks for the response;

So when we do my the manual resolving as you suggested; for example for google.com ("216.58.208.174"), getaddinfo() is ok, but we still get stuck at connect(), with an error "connect() failed, err: 60".

As you may note, this was the first error I sent to you at the start of this thread! We did manual resolving of google's hostname.

Please is there another config we need to do? Or a hardware plug we need to push?

Kindly help

Regards.

Hi,

[quote user="smauelGIS"]Did you use CONFIG_LTE_NETWORK_MODE_NBIOT=y for the test with NB1?[/quote]

Yes, I tested with this config entry.

[quote user="smauelGIS"]It still hangs infact at getaddrinfo() procedure. we get an error code 60.[/quote]

This indicates that the network you're connected to does not provide a DNS service (getaddrinfo cannot resolve the hostname), or that its currently unavailable.

You can manually resolve the hostname at your end, and input that as a string, like this "127.0.0.1".

Kind regards,

Håkon

kindly,

Did you use CONFIG_LTE_NETWORK_MODE_NBIOT=y for the test with NB1?

We need to know if we are using the correct configuration.

Regards.

Hello,

We tried the sample the whole day yesterday and this morning. It still hangs infact at getaddrinfo() procedure. we get an error code 60.

None of the other samples are also running, they all hang!

Please is there something else we need to do?

Kindly note that we are Italy, Siracusa precisely.

Thanks and regards

Hi,

I tested the sample with NB1 and M1, and it runs as it should at my end:

*** Booting Zephyr OS build v2.1.99-ncs1  ***
HTTPS client sample started
Provisioning certificate
Waiting for network.. OK
Connecting to google.com
Sent 64 bytes
Received 903 bytes

>        HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Finished, closing socket.

Do other samples also behave like this? Ie: Can you try to run mqtt_simple and see if it also hangs in the connect() procedure?

Kind regards,

Håkon

Hello Hakon,

Thank you so much for the reply.

Please find below the results we get;

errno = 60

HTTPS client sample started
Provisioning certificate
Waiting for network.. OK
Connecting to google.com
connect() failed, err: 60

Please note that we are in siracusa Italy so we only have NB-IoT, we therefore added the config

CONFIG_LTE_NETWORK_MODE_NBIOT_GPS=y

to the prj.conf file.

Kindly help us know what we need to check

Hi,

There's a https sample in ncs that might be helpful:

https://github.com/NordicPlayground/fw-nrfconnect-nrf/tree/master/samples/nrf9160/https_client

Could you try this and see if this fits your needs?

Kind regards,

Håkon
