I'm trying to remotely access access a PLC (rather a remote laptop connected to local PLC) over the Internet via a remote desktop application. I've successfully done this already with a 3G usb "air card" and a wired connection to the PLC. So it kinda looks like this:
MY_PC <-->{INTERNET}<-->3G Stick<-->[USB]LAPTOP[WIREDPORT]<-->WIRED SWITCH<-->PLC
Now I tried this again except instead of a 3G-USB stick on the remote end, I'm using a 3G wireless HUB which uses the laptop's wireless card to connect.
MY_PC <-->{INTERNET}<-->3G WIRELESS HUB<-->[WIRELESSCARD]LAPTOP[WIREDPORT]<-->WIRED SWITCH<-->PLC
Now in this configuration, once we plug the ethernet cable into the WIREDPORT, the remote laptop loses connection to the 3G WIRELESS HUB, and my remote desktop session is ended.
I'm thinking my problem has to do with using both the laptops wired and wireless connections at the same time. Anybody have any ideas of what i can do to fix this?
