Good morning Ricardo,

Thank you for your update and comments!

In my office I have a DHCP server, so new plcs connected to the network will show up in RSLinx's Ethernet IP driver with a random address assigned by the server.

To get around that, I also set my PC up with a static address, then connect directly to the PLC and use the bootp tool to give it the address it will have in the filed, then go online and turn off bootp/dhcp so it will retain the address 🙂

Thanks again,
