PlanG freezes on networked pc+other

[Papagiorgio]

Hi,

I have the lastest version Plan G running on on Vista Home premium 32bit. It is running on a networked laptop with the same platform except 64 bit. IT has been fine for a good lenght of time till recently, it just freezes.  Maybe freeze is not the right word.  Plan G doesn't freeze just the trackin of the ac.  The next waypoint distance just stays the same.  The only way to rectify it is to disconnect the network connecion on PlanG and then connect again.  Then I have to reload the flight plan again.

The other problem I have once in a great while is that the It will not connect to the pc that is running FSX.  I check the simconnect on the FSX machine and the settings match the connection options on the PlanG machine.  The only way that I can get it to connect again is that I have to reboot the FSX pc.  I am using Ipv4

Any ideas Tim?

1. You should just be able to click on the Disconnect button and immediately on the Connect button if that happens. You can then simply carry on. No need to reload anything.

2. That typically happens if FS crashes. The network connection is left hanging and there's nothing you can do other than restart the FS PC. Just restarting FS will not reset the connection.
