Regain 800xA wireless connection after a reboot.
Using a fully loaded Engineering client HMI attach to 800xA system via WIRELESS (Wi-
FI) and each time I reboot the HMI I loose the wifi connection to 800xA system.
1 - Backgound: The only time RNRP populates is when attached via Eithernet other wise on Wi-Fi I can only see my Node.
2 - Recover from the conditions is only achievable by reconnecting HMI via Ethernet cable.
3- I am using an ASA firewall and a special SSID to attach the laptop to the 800xA system.
Equiptment:
Winodws 7 SP1
Server 2008 SP1/2
800xA 5.1 Rev D
Answers
800xA need RNRP
RNRP need multicast
WiFi might block multicast
Ergo: WiFi may prevent connecting 800xA
Suggestion: use thin client / RDP to connect over wifi to a properly wired engineering station
