Hi All.<br>
<br>
For the first time as far as I can remember, I am not able to get in <br>
direct connection from a PC to an Orion MKII (and Hermes)<br>
<br>
I am using an Intel NUC Mini PC with a i7 processor. It work perfect as <br>
long as the LAN connection is via a switch but when trying direct <br>
connection, it does not work. The strange thing is that if they have been <br>
connected and I just move the cable from the switch and connect directly, <br>
the connection is OK for around 10-20 seconds, then disconnects and after <br>
that it is not possible to connect.<br>
<br>
I have had times before that I had to set a fixed IP address on the <br>
OpenHPSDR card to use direct connection and then there was no problem. And <br>
I have tried on 2-3 other PC´s, all with Win10 installed and it always <br>
works.<br>
<br>
So I have concluded that there must be a setting in the NUC PC that is <br>
different from the others. I had problems when I first installed Win10 on <br>
that PC. I had to select UEFI instead of Legacy when booting during setup <br>
(whatever this means, I am not a PC Guru anyway!)<br>
<br>
Can someone lead me in the right direction?<br>
<br>
73, Kjell<br><br></blockquote></div></div>
