Hi Tom and others... Have some new info. There is no firewall to speak of. And no selinux. We tried the windows software and still cannot gain access. We have a hot spare and plugged that in temporarily. We CAN access that now via all methods (S75_TEST and windows software)...but the other box we still cannot get into. > I am not sure I know what you mean by "other access points". > By this I meant if I have 2 sessions open and have one running S75_TEST....then try to run S75_TEST on the 2nd terminal the program reports 0 Devices ... stupid possibility, just wanted to make note that I've tried to think of everything. So at this point we're thinking a surge of some type??? And we're trying to find a way to reset to factory defaults. Any other ideas in the meantime? > > re: > >I have a curious problem so I hope someone can help here.
