D.Dar-Nell Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 Hey guys, any way you can link a laptop running Remote / Monitor to the Frog 2 with a Ethernet cable and miss out the Wi-Fi ? Logic says yes as its still the same protocol. But when I tried it, it said disconnected and some error. Wi-Fi in my theatre is not wonderful, things seem to interfere with it, if I can take a laptop down onto stage and use the building wired network point, would save me a lot of running up and down to and fro the control room. Many Thanks Daniel Quote Daniel Dar-Nell Technical Director QEII Theatre Kingston Grammar School Kingston Upon Thames
Jon Hole Posted February 3, 2011 Report Posted February 3, 2011 Hi Daniel, There is no reason why this won't work. If it's a direct link you will need to use a crossover cable, and ensure that the first 3 parts of the IP address match on your laptop and on the console, with the subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 Hope this helps, Quote Jon Hole Global Product Manager, Systems and Control
