The Internet Connectivity; Connection Issues - Aim Solo 2 DL User Manual

7.1.5 The Internet connectivity

For an optimal speed of your AiM device(s) we recommend not to allow the Internet
on the same network and to set the WLAN in the same way.
You can of course allow the Internet access on your network but this would degrade
the communication.
This slightly slower speed can be suitable for your needs but you can also have a se-
cond Wi-Fi connection using an additional hardware (NIC).
This configuration would provide an optimal speed of the data network of your AiM
device(s) and at the same time would provide an internet connectivity with the se-
cond NIC.

7.1.6 Connection issues

It can occur that Solo 2 DL is correctly connected to Race Studio 3 via Wi-Fi but the
user interface does not show it.
This may be because Wi-Fi port setting is set with a static IP. To switch it to dynamic
(DHCP):
n open "Network and sharing centre" in the Windows
n right click on the Wi-Fi connection and a panel shows up
n select "Properties" option
n double click on "Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4)"
n verify that option "Obtain an IP address" is active
