I have a moteino/Pi Gateway which has been running great for many months. Now I want to migrate to a Pi3 Gateway. Rather than disturb my existing system until the new one works, I would like to have both gateways connected to my network at the same time. (Of course the moteinos used for testing would use a different Network ID.)
I'm trying to troubleshoot "Waiting for socket connection.." in my browser. I get to the authentication page, and successfully enter my username and password but then it stuck waiting. My router is set up to port forward external 80 and 443 to my original gateway 80 and 443. Works great. When I add to also port forward 80 and 443 to my new Pi3 gateway, it does not solve the socket connection problem. I would rather not bring down my original gateway.
So, does anyone have experience with multiple pi gateways on the same network and how should the router be configured?
You cannot forward a port in 2 locations.
Make your secondary work on something like 8080 and 4443, port those ti your Pi3 80/443.
