Hi,
I have a couple of PC's on our network, one that's been in a good few years, and one that I have just installed next to it. The issue I have with the new one is that I can ping the IP addresses of the PLC's, but when I setup the Eth driver in linx it displayed the processor name but displays a yellow icon and not the actual icon of the device I.e. Compactlogix processor.
I've also tried ETHIP driver and set it to browse remote subnet but still no luck! The older PC uses the ETH driver.
These are both connected directly into the Stratix 8300 and the older one can communicate fine across all VLANS but the newer one has this issue with RSLinx.
I read a comment somewhere about setting up the router to broadcast I think it was, but its strange one PC works and the other one doesn't.
Anybody have suggestions as to what might be causing this?
Regards
Rob
