I can't connect my DAQ using wireless connection

[robotica]

I have a cDAQ 9191 chassis. I want to connect it wirelessly to my laptop. I have got a router and I created a new wireless connection using it. How do I now configure my device to accept data. I tried to connect the device to my laptop using Ethernet cable and followed the steps given on the website. But once I save the settings and unplug the Ethernet cable the connection is lost and MAX can no longer see the device.

Please Help.!!!!

Hi Robotica,

Have you made sure that the 9191 is connected to the network before unplugging the Ethernet cable? If there is a wireless connection established, have you tried right clicking on the 9191 in MAX and selecting Reserve Chassis? You may also want to try disabling your ethernet based network adapter on your computer. Windows networking manager tends to only route traffic through one network adapter and it may just be that Windows is routing MAX through the physical ethernet adapter rather than the wireless.
