    Network issues

    I have a G2N Helix 9-DI,G2N Helix 9-SI Mega and a G3N Helix 7-DI Mega all networked through a 5-port hub.They we’re working great until just recently.They will not share waypoints and when I look under my network tab none of them show the other units.i have all recent updates.My question,is there a way to test the 5-port hub to see if it’s still working?is there a way I may have changed some setting causing the units to not recognize each other.TIA

    Did you forget to turn on the power for the Ethernet Switch?

    Swap some of the Ethernet connections to unused ports and see if you get any sharing.

    Also if you have cables long enough, connect two units directly with a cable to see if they will share.

    Thank you for the info. I changed the cables on the port and it started working.
