I have 2 XBEE S2c module like these -> Modules
I installed XCTU latest software from the internet and set one of the XBee is router, other one is coordinator. I gave them exact same id 4444. After looking tons of website i couldnt communicate them. My friend got same XBees and i used those configurations but still not working. Is my XBee Modules are broken?
Here are the settings;
For Router:

For Coordinator:

Terminal Example ( Coordinator Send and Receive at the same time but Router dont sending or receiving anything. )
Terminal 1
Terminal 2
They both connected to the computer like this; Connection
I look for a solution in all websites, and tried everything but did not find anything useful. With same configuration my friends devices can able to communicate but mine doesnt.
Problem 1:
this is exactly my problem (Connection related between Coordinator - Router)
***Note : Kindly Check Firmware Version
if Version is greater than 4060 then downgrade to 4060***
i don't know the reason
i downgraded to ver 4060 then it works ...
and most important Change AP (API Enable) to 0 (Transparent mode)
And Config guide -- > For Co-Ordinator (Suggestion From Robu.in) 1: First set Pan ID for your network. This can be any Hex value from 0 to FFFF. (Set it as 1234)
2:To operate the Radio in the broadcast mode set the DL (Destination address) as FFFF.
3: Type the name of the first radio in NI (Node Identifier).
4:You can provide any name. Here the NI set as COORDINATOR.
5:To make the Radio as COORDINATOR, Set the CE parameter to Enable and click on the Write button (Pencil Icon) to save the information.
Config Guide --> For Router
1:Enter the Pan Id [Same as Coordinator] which is the same as COORDINATOR.
2:Set the JV channel Verification to enable so that it joins the COORDINATOR.
3:Leave the CE to Disable and click on the Write to save the changes.
That's It !
now Check Serial Communication ...
Problem 2: (My Suggestion [cause it happened with me also])
and for [Coordinator Send and Receive at the same time]
Check COORDINATOR Config DL (Destination Address) -> Set to FFFF
