Interesting. . . Lots of views but no responses, other than me talking to myself:
Well, Self, it turns out the problem you were having was with NetEdit3 and its incompatibility with Windows XP 64-Bit. Once you installed NetEdit3 on your Windows XP 32-Bit Virtual Machine, you was able to get the software to run properly and see the H2-ECOM100 module you was having trouble with. You were then able to configure the module with the desired IP address and all seems to be right with the system once again. Problem solved. . .
