Which part of the computer you are able to ping?

Windows side or base system side?
(ProConOS is part of the base system)

How is your Network Adapter is set up?

• Bridged
• NAT
• Host only

If Bridged or NAT

Which Network Adapter is assigned (LapTops normally have two of them: LAN/WLAN)?
How do you connect to ProConOS (seperate network card to the Base system or Router)?

Do you use the same vmware software or an upgraded version?

A good start would be telling

• KSS Version
• Multiprog version
• ProConOS version
• vmware Version (also Work station or Player)

Also a sketch of you layout would be helpful

But I have another question for you. How should I do if I would connect to the OPC DA interface?
I have Kepserverex, and I have tried to connect but haven't been able.
Is it possible?

Or is there another smart/easy way to do a signal exchange with another system?
I would like to read out some values, to Kepserverex or a siemens plc.

And then I did a WIndows Defender rule to allow all connections to all IP adresses on all ports.

Just remeber to deactivate rule when done with programming
