Hi,
I was recently given a new laptop by my IT department. The old computer was a Panasonic CF-51 Toughbook running Windows XP, the new one is a HP Probook 6560b running Windows 7 32 bit. I used to use a Belkin F5D5050 USB to Ethernet adapter to communicate to our Compactlogix processors. The Belkin installed on my new laptop using the Vista driver but I can't see any processors in RS Linx. My IT guy got me a Linksys USB300M which does not come with a Windows 7 driver but is compatible according to Microsoft and did install without any problems, but I still could not see any controllers. I have tried both the Ethernet and Ethernet IP drivers, I verified I have the correct IP address assigned to the adapter, I verified that I have the adapter assigned to the IP driver in linx, everthing is set how it used to work. Any ideas what I am missing?
thanks,
