Using CC3000 to connect to school network

Projects Networking, Protocols, and Devices

Hello all,

I have a project I would like to start using in my lab at school, but can't get the thing to properly send information to my server. Its basically just a sensor hooked up to an Arduino with a CC3000 on it. The device works fine on my home network - but the GET function to drop data to a php file on my server (offsite) is not working here at school. If I type the same GET code into the browser on my computer at school, i.e. website.com/sendata.php?one=1232&two=123123 etc., the data sends just fine.

The networks on campus require certain information before internet connectivity is allowed. For example, after connecting to the GUEST network and pulling up a webpage, you are required to press an ACCEPT button to agree to terms etc. Internet connectivity is allowed only after that is pressed. Does anyone have experience using the CC3000 as a client on these types of networks? Is it possible to have the CC3000 press that accept button?

What's also weird is that the cc3000 client connects to the sever IP & Port fine as evidenced by the Serial debug, but it cant actually send the data from the Guest network.

Does anyone have any ideas on this?

Thanks

I'd run wireshark (or airshark or equivalent) on a computer and capture the interchange as you validate yourself to the network.
That might give you the clues you need to brute force things with the CC3000.
