John Gioia Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 Hi all, I have successfully configured TCP/IP on my V700. I have assigned it an internal IP address, SubNet Mask and Gateway and can ping my PLC from my computer. I was able to successfully use Remote Operator and import my .URC file and all is good. I used the default 20256 port number. I have asked the IT department to port forward port number #20256 to my internal IP address of my PLC so that I can attempt to test the Remote Operator from the outside internet world. I have defined the external IP address in my favorites in the Remote Operator with port #20256 and I have used the same PLC name that I defined in the PLC. I gave myself at least a 20 second timeout and I still cant seem to connect to my PCL remotely (outside of my office) .. have I missed out on something ?

MVP 2023 Ausman Posted February 13, 2018 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 I think I'd first be going for another cup of coffee with the IT department. cheers, Aus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotwires Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 canyouseeme.org or the likes on a PC inside the same LAN as PLC can confirm if the port is indeed open on the WAN side. Maybe a typo by IT staff, I can imply that because I'm IT tech myself..... it happens sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MVP 2023 Ausman Posted May 1, 2018 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 If John and Sas were to post the exact names of their routers, and perhaps links to a correct manual, someone might have the time to go right through them. To me it is still a router issue, unless the WAN connection is being done via a SIM card which may be stopping things happening. cheers, Aus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sasdiscos Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 Yes, I agree, its my router. or provider more likely. Sky. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
