Rick,
Same network, same switch, and three foot patch cables even.
It's my understanding that as you said, if the license was bogus, it would
come up all red LED's. And I assume that the configurator or the board
does some kind of checksumming on the BIN file to at least do something to
verify it's not corrupted?
Reg/Karlnet, can you give me any ideas as to what's going on here? After
a forced reload, the unit is clean, right? So, I can just scan network,
change IP, open remote config, make my changes, save config and reboot,
right? Am I missing something?
Does anyone have an older version of the SAT SOHO firmware I can try out
(maybe 4.31)? All I've got is 4.44 for it.
