[132356] Connecting to blynk-cloud.com:80

hello everyone,

Am using an Arduino Mega 2560 that is attached to an Ethernet Shield. I am trying to connect the Arduino to Blynk and am getting the error “[132356] Connecting to blynk-cloud.com:80”. It keeps trying to connect to the cloud.
I have tried everything I could and did not succeed.
Please help.

This is my code:

#define BLYNK_PRINT Serial
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>
#include <BlynkSimpleEthernet.h>

char auth[] = “72bd8d57269e4a7889c5b08174aa8194”;

void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600); // See the connection status in Serial Monitor
Blynk.begin(auth); // Here your Arduino connects to the Blynk Cloud.
}

void loop()
{
Blynk.run(); // All the Blynk Magic happens here…
}

Aside from NOT properly formatting your code…

Blynk - FTFC

… You are also missing some essential code required for your Ethernet shield :wink: Google around and/or look at the sketch builder options.

EDIT - Well, perhaps you are using an Ethernet adapter without the SD card attachment??

Either way… have you tried Googling for generic Ethernet scripts to test with first?

hello,

Am using an Ethernet adapter with an SD card attachment.
I have not tried any scripts yet.
I will give it a try.

Then you need the relevant commands (shown in the example) to disable the SD it as it can apparently interfere.

hey, i was got this problem. and i solved it when i use other wifi.
