Static Domain/IP for EyeFi Manager

Postby mankyd on Fri May 07, 2010 6:47 am

Hello,

I've been looking at your product and it seems pretty fantastic. The one problem I've noticed is that, in order to send files directly to your computer, it seems that you need to have your computer connected locally to the same local network.

The computer I wish to send to has a static IP with a DNS record. It would be most excellent if there was a way to specify this domain or IP for the card to connect to. This is similar to another's feature request:

Is there any possibility of this happening?

"relayed uploads" will allow you to send files to your computer across the WAN. no static IP / DNS required.

To break into "Relayed Upload" a little more... it doesn't require specifying an external DNS hostname or IP address. The computer that is running the Eye-Fi Manager or Helper software receives a push notification when there are new pictures available for it to download from Eye-Fi's server, and it then begins downloading them. This allows your pictures to end up on your desktop computer at home, while you're out and about taking pictures and uploading them from a hotspot somewhere.
