Expedition Navigation Software
Offline
I have a mini router that I can use for VNC screen sharing of Expedition to a tablet.
I like this router, because it can also provide data to the laptop over the same network used for screensharing; either wirelessly by tethering an iphone, or plugging in an ethernet cable from Starlink.
But what I don't have, and would like, is access to the H5000 websocket over that same network- to do calibrations, for example.
Right now, the only way to access the H5000 websocket is to disconnect from the mini router, and connect to the B&G GoFree.
I tried plugging the cable that goes into the GoFree into my router - I have a B&G adapter that connects to the N2K plug on the cable into the GoFree, and has a regular RJ45 etehernet plug on the other end.
But I don't get anything over that - either through the mini router, or just plugged into the laptop.
How can I get the H5000 websocket available over my mini router?

On the simple side -- when you said you plugged in the H5000 ethernet -- did you do any configuration on the H5000. It's been a while but I believe I had to configure it to be enabled and to be a client ethernet port not and use the router for DHCP configuration.

no - i did not do any configuration of the H5000.
i guess i figured there wasn't much difference between the gofree, were it was plugged in, and a different router.
