did you connect directly to the wifi370 device?
it has it’s own wifi and you will have to setup it directly, not over your native wifi network.
having two wifi370 from amazon here working fine!here are some more informations

http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150623/s7xbypn7.jpgi ordered mine directly from the link you have posted, and i have obviously the old firmware.

Your firmware I seems to be totally different, at least your firmware version is. Try to run it as server mode and use a totally different ip like 192.168.99.99 for it. Have a look at your picture 3 at the bottom.
At picture 1 try to scan your network for your DSL router. And switch from sta to ap mode. AP mode is access point mode. So your device is having its own network range. Maybe this works…pimatic v0.9 has been released!

have tried several thinks, i know what ap is and all the other stuff. the controller works only with the fancycolor app, i have read somethin on amazon that there are some clones.
ive bind it to my network but no succes for pimatic. when it was connect to my network, the fancy app would not find it anymore.
http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00G55329Amy firmware is totally different and the inside looks also totally different. will ship it back.
any ideas wich one i should buy?the firmare was 1.02.40
-
Well, seems that since April 2015 the wifi370 devices from this amazon vendor have changed and there are lots of negative comments about it now.
Hope you can send it back and get your money back!!pimatic v0.9 has been released!

yes it looks like, but where to buy now?

@p4co86 The link below looks like an offering for the “old” Wifi 370, but this is just a guess and there is no guarantee you get the product delivered as specified (after 2 months). Maybe you can ask the retailer which firmware version it is before you order. For alternatives you may want to consider Milight which is about the same price, but you can also LED Light-Bulbs. The Wifi-Controller/Hub costs about 18 Euros and the RGB or RGBW LED-Strip Controller costs about 15 Euros.

thanks for the link, but i will give the milight thing a chance.
is it this one ? http://www.amazon.de/Wireless-Steuermodul-Controller-Lampe-Licht/dp/B00KF9W7ES/ref=pd_bxgy_201_img_y
do i need anything else.Yes i now a a power supply and Led Stipe.
EDIT: oh, i see it will be delivered from china. is there any milight supplier here in germany?
what is this device ?
http://www.amazon.de/Kontrolleinrichtung-kabelloser-Mi-Lampen-Smartphone-Kontrolle/dp/B00OH2ES9Q/ref=sr_1_10?s=lighting&ie=UTF8&qid=1435162374&sr=1-10&keywords=milightit would be delivered from amazon, but sale adress is Mongkong does any one know how long it needs to come to me ?

@p4co86 Actually, you need both devices! The first link is the LED-Strip Controller which supports the proprietary 2,4 Ghz Milight protocol and the second link is for the Wifi Hub which receives control commands via Wifi and send them out via the proprietary 2,4 Ghz Milight protocol. Yes, this confuses a lot of people
EDIT: Regarding delivery times from China this varies depending on the type of delivery service used. Most of the time it is sent via China Post standard postage which takes 6-8 weeks (sometimes quicker if you’re lucky).
EDIT: You may find some retailers shipping from Germany on ebay, however, these offerings are slightly more expensive - http://www.ebay.de/sch/i.html?_odkw=Milight&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.XMi.light+Controller.TRS0&_nkw=Mi.light+Controller&_sacat=0
