Cannot see DWC with Duet 2 ethernet

vivek

Unable to see DWC on Duet 2 ethernet only. Connected ethernet cable to the board and other end to my mac. Used M552 S1 P192.168.0.1 and set computer ethernet to 192.168.0.2. Set address in search bar to 192.168.0.2 but it was unable to connect. Also tried 192.168.0.1 and different combinations but have never seen the DWC. Tried the same thing with different addresses (192.168.2.#),different browsers and even windows 10 and I got the same result every time (unable to connect).

No wifi options are possible due to agency guidelines. Board connected to 22 Idex Vision Miner

Ethernet shows green bubble and says that it is connected when the cable is connected between the two.

Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong? My goal is to pull up the DWC in a web browser, but it seems like I just can't figure it out.

Thanks for your help

Did you also set the subnet mask on the duet?

@vivek first, find out what your PCs existing WiFi IP address and subnet mask is. I’d guess that the subnet mask is 255.255.0,0, so any address matching the first two numbers is going to Wifi. If so, you’ll need to set the IP address for the PC Ethernet port so that the address falls outside the wifi subnet mask. If your router is using 192.168.x.x, you could use 10.x.x.x or 172.16.x.x (see here for private IP address ranges https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/networkmanager/4.2.0?topic=translation-private-address-ranges ).

Once you have worked that out, set the Duet to an address in that range.

Alternatively, you can also test your current setup by disconnecting from WiFi. Then all traffic should go via the Ethernet port.

Please post your config.g so we can see how you have it set up currently. You can also send ‘netstat -a’ in a Windows command line to get the current Windows settings.
