Help with networking

[pafoster]

I need help I used to run 3 Solix units with a hub and an ultrex connected. It worked flawless for 2 years and then nothing worked. I replaced on with an apex and then added a second apex to cut out the hub. Then I had to add an explor because the Solix won’t talk to the apex with an update. So now I have to 2 apex 13’s, xplor, and quest trolling motor. They are all connected no hub but they won’t talk to each other. The console graph sees them all but the bow graphs won’t see the console graph. Please help humminbird said it is a loop issue but I can’t understand if I somehow looped a unit to it self how my console graph can see them all? I’m including pics. I am very frustrated that I have spent all this money and keep having more problems. Edit I can’t get the photos small enough to upload here. The only reason I want them networked is I am a high school boat captain and I’m trying to watch the 360 at the console. Thanks for any help.

Which network switch do you have? That may enter into the equation or it may have gone bad for some reason.

I don’t have one teh apex’s have 2 Ethernet ports so I don’t need one. That’s why I went with them to not have to use a hub. Thanks

I somehow thought you had a Solix on there as well. I would say make sure all the pieces have the current updates. Maybe unplug a couple items to eliminate the possibility of one item shutting down the network. Then if it still not communicating remove one of the remaining items to ensure it is not messing you up. (process of elimination). Bob

Factory reset on my xplore fixed mine when mine was doing this
