Re: Can't Image cRio

I should have been more clear. I was using the cRio imaging tool, selecting WindRiver C++ and imaging with the latest (v29?) image.

The connection mostly works. Some part of the imaging would work and then later fail.

Off

~Also please check your firewall. This being on can interfere with the connection between the computer and the c-rio.
Windows asks. I disabled.

~Also make sure your computer is not on "Get connections automatically" please set your computer to for example 10.00.00.99 (replace the zeros with your team's number)
Fixed IP address.

~Also please connect to a router if you havent already.
Ding, ding, ding. A winner! I found the notion that inserting a hub would fix that problem so lame that I ignored it for a way too long time. (A router is not required; a simple hub works just fine.)

It is sad that this is a problem. Networking should not be that hard.
