[WT-support] One computer doesn't talk to the other

[Bob Wilson, N6TV]

Make sure that none of your enabled COM ports are set to "Network" (the old
unfortunate default).

Make sure that the station name defined at the bottom of the contest
configuration screen is unique to each computer (e.g. STN1 and STN2), and
that contest type and mode is identical.

Type SYNCH (Enter) in both logging Windows, then log more QSOs.

Make sure Advanced Network settings are set to default values and both
computers are using exactly the same broadcast address and port number.
Press the "By default" button to set these properly.

You may also have to temporarily disable any non-standard firewall software
to see if it's interfering.

Finally, try using wired rather than wireless networking.

Bob, N6TV
