Client Dongle

I have managed to set up network setting on the Congo and Laptop using a fixed IP address. I still get no Client option on the startup on the laptop.

Re: IP Adresses on Net3 ACN 2 port gateways

You are on the right track. You do want to change your computers settings to the 10.101.x.x range of addresses if the nodes are on that default setting. I've not seen too many ETC Network setups where field technicians change from the default ranges, so you probably can get away with that as your start...

Re: IP Adresses on Net3 ACN 2 port gateways

That sounds good. I've downloaded the software and read the manual. There are two other nodes on this network that still have their previously assigned IP address. In order to assign the defaulted node an address should I ---- 1. Connect all nodes to the network. 2. Plug my computer into the network...

IP Adresses on Net3 ACN 2 port gateways

Through a mistake of curiousity I restored the defaults on a Net# ACN 2 port DMX RDM gateway. Now when I plug the ethernet cable into the gateway it responds but says it is "Waiting for IP address server" What do I do to get the gateway to take up an IP address? Any help would be much appreciated!!!

NCE, GCE and Net3 Services onto Congo.

sclausen: I believe if you install NCE or GCE on your console, you will get buttons in the Settings (the system settings available from the startup screen) to launch those programs. Also, Net3 Services may be installed on consoles running v5.0.x software to provide DHCP and time server functions from...

Re: Networking

My two cents: If you don't want to worry about IPs in the future and this is an isolated network, I would consider enabling the DHCP (Address Service) located in the Network tab. As long as the adapter on the laptop and the future backup console is set up to use DHCP everything will happen automatically...

A new look at Net3

Someone said to me recently, "I honestly believe you shouldn't have to know Net3 from the wind in your hair." Perhaps that's a fair statement - how many people in any office around the world have the slightest idea what's going on behind the scenes with their computer network? Still, we certainly think...
