Hi, I am not able to make connection between NI-9188 Chassis and my Windows 7 Laptop. My firewall is off. I have Automation expolrer. Please suggest what needs to check. Thanks Prashant

Hey Prashant- I see at least two things that may be giving you problems. One, the fact that you have no IP whatsoever and that some of the fields (IP address and subnet mask) seems to point to some kind of breakdown in your NIC driver or Windows settings. If you go to Control Panel>>Network and Sharing>>Advanced Adapter settings (names may be a bit different since I listed from memory), you should be able to adjust the TCP/IP settings for IPv4 for your adapter. Set it to automatically acquire an address and reboot to see if things improve. If not, you might need to troubleshoot further as to why that interface seems non-functional. If you plug it into a router, switch, or LAN modem, are you able to connect and see better results? The other item I noticed is that you have VMWare tunnelling adapaters configured. I think that the first paragraph in my post is most important, because these issues will be insurmountable if your network interface isn't functional, but once you get past that point you may have routing problems/confusion on your system with those VMWare adapters. If you don't need those adapters you should consider disabling them to avoid any issues. This NI KB has some other helpful troubleshooting suggestions, as well.
