The advanced network settings modification is only required for special 
uses, in multi-op configuration. The one you selected allows different 
machines to use their own log, but with a common packet gateway. It can 
be used during a DXPed, for example.

If you are single-op (assisted), just use the default settings. I guess 
both applications (WT and WtDxTelnet) are running on the same computer ? 
If so, use the 127.255.255.255 as IP broadcast address for both apps. 
The whole WT network traffic (few bytes per second, actually !) will be 
then kept "inside" this machine.
