Retrospect 6.5 can't see client when 2 network connections enabled

[ghostroller]

When I enable Hardwire and Wireless on laptops, retro can't find clients. However, it can see clients when one or the other is enabled. My tech consultant believes that the laptops are causing the problem. We took the TCP/IP settings off of Automatic Metric and set the hardwire card to "1" and the wireless card to "10". Any ideas what may be causing the client machine to confuse retro? We use Timeslips (which is run off the server) and we have no problem. Timeslips recognizes that the hardwire card is the preferred TCP/IP connection.

Hi

 

The OS will route multicast packets differently depending on which interface is active. Your best bet is to use the retroclient -ip command to bind the client application to a specific IP address.
