Cant connect to the internet, could before

[Jkchubbes]

Today I went to use the railpro assistant for my 4th install and I cant connect it to the internet.  I've never had an issue before with the 3 previous installs.  Could something have changed with the new year?

I checked my windows firewall and show nothing in the outbound rules for Ring Engineering but see it in the inbound rules and it shows a green checkmark.  I ran the test and got this.

Are you still using version 3.21 of RailPro Assistant? If so you'll need to update to version 4.01. RPA and the file server had a makeover between the versions. The ports used by RPA changed and the username & password is no longer required. I don't believe that RPA 3.21 is supported by the new server any more (I haven't personally checked though), only 4.01.

If your still using 3.21 and upgrading to 4.01 doesn't work (or if you are using 4.01 already) let us know and we can look further into it.

Looks like i'm still using 3.21, I'll update and report back.

Cool.


Further to your post with the test results, when you used the UDP test tool, did you open the test webpage and start the test in the webpage as well? The test webpage and the UDP test tool work hand in hand so if you didn't you'll need start the test in the test webpage before starting the test in the UDP test tool. You can open the test webpage from the UDP test tool by clicking the Open Test page button.
