[WT-support] Problem with wtDxTelnet V2.0

[Werner Maier]

Hi Larry,

same observed at DP6A.

Setup:
M/2 Setup with 4 Laptops, three running XP-Pro, one Win-2k.

Station 1: XP-Pro UMTS Card, cluster via pi4cc.nl
Station 2: XP-Pro
Station 3: XP-Pro (used for second listening op at station 2 in partner mode)
Station 4: Win2k, used for statistics display and so on.

Network via Accesspoint and 11Mbit WLAN.

No network crashes at all, but at some point we discovered, we
couldn't sent anything to the cluster.

Even entering commands at Station 1 in WT itself would not send
the commands to the WtDxTelnet.

Entering commands in WtDXTelnet itself worked fine.

All Stations received the the packet spots and infos complete
from WtDXTelnet, but could not sent to it.
Ip must have been functioning well as all stations could receive
all other stations (network gabs, qsos, statuswindow).

We did tried to restart Win-Test at the support stations (Stn3/4),
but that did not help.
We did not restart win-Test or WtDxTelnet on Stn1, we just
used the cluster in "passive" mode then.

Setup at home with same laptop and umts-cluster works fine again.

seems to me as if WtDxTelnet would not receive broadcasts
at some time any more.
