I know this is probably not the right spot for this, but… I have an iMac with vista 3 on it, it is connected to a dummy network to control our lights (192.168.0.x Art-net). If I turn on WiFi (192.168.101.x) and connect to our internet connection I loose the lights, if I unplug the lights I get internet…how do I make both interfaces work? ---

I’m having the same issue on our L5 using sACN with Windows 10. Even with correct IP addresses assigned as soon as I plug in our house network (on completely different IP ranges) we lose all light control. We are unable to use any remote control to the console. Please help. 🙂 ---

On Mac, Vista will only use the top network interface in the service order list. Make sure your WiFi adapter is below the Artnet Network adapter in the list. ---

We are having the same issue with our l5 Windows 10 and sACN, except we have perfect remote connecting, but it may take a couple of reboots to get the sACN to work properly. I don’t understand the issue. I was thinking it was our previous system designer set the sACN network to a 169.xxx.xxx.xxx instead of a 2.xxx.xxx.xxx network. Anyone have insight on this issue? ---

Yes, what we finally did was get a USB to ethernet adapter. This fixed everything and we have had no issues since, we have been using splashtop to remote log in with perfect stability. ---

If vista only uses the top interface in the service order why is there a setting in vista for network interface? Whats that doing? ---

In Mac, nothing really. This happens to be a Mac issue rather than a Vista issue. I have the same issue on a non Vista Mac with simply adding network connections for my home internet networks. I can’t drive a wired and wireless adapters at the same time for two different networks. I can’t remember the specifics but I looked it up when I was attempting it and found it was a common Mac issue.
