Question: Why does it take so long to start the SICAM Q80 Manager software on my laptop?
Answer: A laptop normally operated within a company network is usually set to DNS. In standalone operation with
SICAM Q80 7KG8080, this leads to considerable delays until Windows gives up looking for the DNS in the network
which is no longer present.
Solution: switch off DNS
Question: My laptop sometimes can't find SICAM Q80 7KG8080 after having been rebooted.
Answer: Windows assigns a new adapter address to laptops with PCMCIA network cards at each booting. This
adapter number can't be seen from outside.
Remedy: New network search and enter the device as new.
