Re: [Help] Can ping, but DS says "No Robot Communication" only W7, ok from XP
 

Mr. Lim: just put the 2013 kit on, along with the updates.

no change in the status: DS can ping everything, but still shows no communications. Ping in DS is showing green, ping from command line is good, can ftp to cRIO.

The imaging tool cannot see the cRIO. So Labview itself can talk to the cRIO (I can deploy to it and see variables), non-Labview stuff can talk to the cRIO (FTP), but I have 2 programs written *in* Labview that cannot talk to the cRIO (the DS and the imaging tool).

Just put the 2013 kit on my XP box, all is ok there.

This may sound stupid...

When the laptop was first hooked to the network, did you set it as a home, public, or an office network? Windows 7 does this weird thing sometimes where it won't let you access other computers on a network (beyond pinging them) if you set it as anything other than home. It's bitten me a few times.

Luck,

Sparks

Don't remember what I did.

We can do things besides ping: we can deploy, watch code run, and FTP.
