You may want to also look at the X10 Commander web site and forums for more information. On setting up to work correctly.

Good catch. I ran Melloware X10 Commander with a CM19 on a little netbook-like XP laptop.... for a long time (years). For some reason... it would lose it's IP address after a power failure. And... without being set to the correct IP address.... the app/software is useless. But power failures were/are rare and
the IP address is/was easy to reset by quickly doing an command prompt, IP config... and then entering in the IP address. So I never resolved that one/only issue I ever had with X10 Commander.
. The OP doesnt specify which app they are attempting to talk to x10 commander with, so if it is something other then the specific x10commander app it won't work
Yeah.... X10 Commander is basically a third-party WM-100. Except.... Melloware now also has an add-on/plug-in?/extra app... IFTTT. That supposedly works well (check their forum) with The X10 Commander and AI devices like Alexa or Google (
I think it works with Google... I am Google AI illiterate). There may be other add-on apps now as well. I've been away from Melloware for a while.
