WSJT refuses to connect to 6400m

in DAX

I have read every thread here and on 3 separate occasions, went step by step the directions on your YouTube Channel. Over the last 4 months, I have dedicated at least 4 hours each try. I can never get matching port #s. Tonight, I actually saw the receive turn green. But it was only laughing at me. My Flex and Computer are plugged into the same LAN, in fact, are plugged into the same router. SDR works flawlessly. I had 3 other radios that connected to my computer and HRD worked right away. HDR doesn't even see my Flex no matter what settings are entered.

You have to have a step by step instructional that doesn't go back 3 steps every other step you take forward? This is SDR. Computers. There should not be this complexity. In todays world, it should be plug and play.

Yesterday, I helped a friend with his 991A. I had his WSJT FT8 working perfectly in 15 minutes.

    I use Slice Master. If it see's WSJT-X on your computer it will set it up for you. Just make sure you have one slice set to DIGU and DAX set for that slice to 1-4 and it is ready. It really is a big help.

    Hope it helps!

    Just for fun, can you test what you are doing on a separate computer/laptop? Even as a test?

    Mike,

    This is actually the 2nd computer connected. My shack computer started to have problems so I bought a new one about 6 months ago. They have the exact same problem when trying to set up the program. (Win10 Pro 32gig)

    I have set up WSTJ on 6 computers in the last year. I had WSTJ running flawlessly on my Yaesu FT950 3 years ago I had it working on an Icom 706 Mk2g with an old laptop running through a USB sound dongle.

    I have a laptop with a clean install on Win 10 that I am setting up for a controller for a Fusion internet linked repeater we (my club) is putting up on a County Tower that I did a new install of 3.7.4 and WJST 2.6.1 and tried. Same problem.

    Any chance this is a firewall issue?

    The firewall won't affect USB sound Cards, but it can inhibit the DAX (TCP/IP) audio stream as it is a network connection.

    Not a firewall problem. I have shut down all firewall/virus programs while trying to debug this. I can start up DAX and see the audio levels on the RX Streams and Mic Stream.
