Host-to-Target communication suddenly dropped.

Hello,

I recently bumped into a problem that I can not solve or figure out. This involves MATLAB 2016b and I am using Simulink Real-Time Explorer.

My laptop is connected to a switch via an ethernet cable. The target computer (the xPC) is also connected to this switch via an ethernet cable. Up until last thursday I could connect to this target computer but now, out of the blue, it simple says " 'TargetPC1' Unable to connect. Check communication settings ".

The IP-Ad, Subnet mask, Port and the Gateway have not changed, the boot CD is still inside. I am well aware of the "Graphic Bug" regarding 2016b when building models but that is no the problem.

I tried changing the switch and ehternet cables but it still can not connect. Have you seen this problem before?

Thanks in advance!

Did you find a solution to this problem? I am experiencing exactly the same.
