Wholehog III & WYG Connectivity

Trying to interface the Wholehog III to a Wyg computer. With the Hog III not connected the Hog Connectivity wizard just says searching for Hog network and WYG works a fine as it should.

When I connect the computer to the Hog and then launch WYG, it get a error code 998 when I open a WYG file and WYG chasers. I have the Hog and the WYG computer connected to a DHCP network and using static IP addresses. The Hog console is set to boot server only.

Same subnet, same gateway and DNS for both. No firewall or AV. I have tried both the same user number as the console or different one and neither seems to make a difference.

I have deleted the Hog Connectivity and reinstalled it. It doesn't help.

Any thoughts? What is error 998 and why does connecting the Hog Cable crash WYG?

Thanks.

    Hi,
    Re Install of Windows has solved many a strange problem in the past with WYG.
    Now that is from several years ago, and might not have anything to do with this problem.
    A few practical tips:
    - Search the IP of the HOG and the WYG computer and write them here
    - Ping the HOG from the WYG (Open CMD and write PING XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX = ip of hog)
    - Check wiring, replace wiring, change Router / Switch
    - Check connection LEDs on Router / Switch
    - Make SURE the DHCP of the router is shut of, not possible on many cheap Switches..
    - Connect the WYG to another computer and ping it, just a malfunctioning NIC?

    I really look forward to hear how this was solved.
