Re: V7 Verify connection fails for port 4300

So I verified the connection and under Checking Host Callback it is

failing

the error "callback to <I/P address> on port 4300 failed". That is

followed

by another message "callback to <pc name> on port 4300 failed".

4300 is enabled in the wdsci preferences, and she added and entry to the
windows firewall.

Our broadband connection at home runs through a linksys wired router.

What am I missing?

Did you check the router settings? I know that on my home router (a
DLink) has a firewall of sorts as well - essentially it just drops any
incoming packets that aren't part of an established connection. I would
think that the callbacks might fall under this category. If this is the
case, you have to tell your router to forward any incoming packets on port
4300 to the IP address of the computer WDSC is running on. It sounds like
port 4300 to your i5 is blocked at the other end too.

Hope this helps,
Adam
