Network Communication Error 3

[twitchy087]

Here is the deal....

Brand new 9.0 SD Card running in a brand new 500 v2. I initially downgraded the SD to 8.1 because we are not yet installing 9.0 to customer locations. Upon bringing the system back up, I cannot pull a config as I just get the "Network Communications Error". This is while I am plugged directly into the LAN and WAN ports with the proper IP addresses associated with each port, 42.xx for LAN and 43.xx for WAN. I CAN get into system status, and I CAN ping the system perfectly. I have formatted and recreated the SD card via my laptop rather than Manager and that as well leads me back to this situation.

Has anyone experienced this? It is driving me nuts at this point. Ive got nothing else in my arsenal.

Any help is greatly appreciated...

Thanks

I used a serial to usb cable.

Oh.. I only have rj 45 to serial.. I'm gonna try it first.. I don't know what it looks like inside the terminal of IPO... =)

No...you need usb to serial adapter if you don't have a serial port, and connect a straight through serial cable to the IPO. It is not a console connection like on a cisco or something.

On some Windows PC/Servers I have had to turn off the Base filtering engine.

I've had this. Funnily enough, if you use a 9.0 manager on the 8.1 system it works fine. using the "correct" manager fails. weird.
