Thanks for the help and ideas Pete - I kinda cheated by connecting back my original wired router and running the new wireless off that older wired router. My cockpit is hard wired anyway so everything works again and the wireless works perfect for other laptops, etc, stuff. Ron

Hi Pete, I've been using FSUIPC 4.6 with FSX on a Win7 64bit pc connected to 2 other pc's - one with Win7 and the other with XP Pro. I've had no problems until I replaced my Router today. All pc's are still communicating and can see and share files, etc, however WideFS has stopped communicating. I've been searching the forum for an answer and it sounds like this is fairly typical, however, I have not found a solution so far. WideServer Log: ********* WideServer.DLL Log [version 7.60a] ********* Blocksize guide = 4096 (double allowed) Date (dmy): 26/12/10, Time 23:48:19.227: Server name is FSMAIN 16068 Initialising TCP/IP server 16068 Initialising IPX/SPX server 16068 IPX/SPX socket() failed [Error=10044] Socket type not supported 16068 Failed to start IPX/SPX Server 16068 Initialising UDP/IP server 16115 Broadcasting service every 1000 mSecs 3357095 Closing down now ...

In any case it dumps it anyhow. It proceeds to try to connect and disconnect rapidly until it simply disconnects and goes to the wait state. Adding or even seeing IPX/SPX in the main FSX pc doesn't seem to be an option - can't see it in the Network Connection as an option. Thanks for any help, Ron
