Why doesn't 8600M connect to my PGXL?

Both the 8600M and PGXL are on the same network and the PC communicates with each but the 8600M does not recognize the PGXL. Any help to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    If you tells us the IP address of the radio and the amp, it will help tell the story.

    Make sure they are both on the same subnet and that your PC firewall isn't blocking the communications.

    Mike,

    Last night I found the issue to be a cable that was plugged into the port used by my ORION II to key the 8600M. As soon as it was removed I was able to key the amp via the rig through the LAN.

    Thanks,
