MartinB. Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I'm just starting to get to grips with RailMaster/eLink and I was wondering if anybody was aware of a way to prevent the repeated display of the warning message about requiring a static IP address? A quick search of these forums doesn't seem to offer a clue and apologies if I've missed it somewhere. Most modern routers can allocate the same IP address to a given MAC address, without the need to dispense with the flexibility of DHCP. From a software perspective the effect is the same, but the warning message within RailMaster lacks the customary tick box that says "I've read this, no need to tell me again." Thanks.

Fishmanoz Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Suggest you email RM Support from within the program and ask them to have RM search for implementation of this option before sending the warning. Or just set it up static anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDS Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 @fishmanoz or maybe just add it to our 'Desirable features ........' thread, within the RailMaster section of the forum. By the way, congratulations on passing 2000 postings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinB. Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 @Fishmnoz thanks I'll go ahead and suggest to RM Support that they add this option. But using a static IP is not a realistic option on a machine which is routinely connected to multiple networks. I'm sure to forget to flip back to DHCP and its an unnecessary pain doing so anyway. @RDS I'll happily add this to the list, just so others are aware RM Support have been asked. I'll share any feedback received from RM Support.. Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinB. Posted August 23, 2013 Author Share Posted August 23, 2013 FYI, I have contacted RM Support with regard to this issue. They understand the problem and do have a solution to come in one of the next updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishmanoz Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 It seems there will be an .ini file option to disable it in v1.53. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
