I’m trying to connect a UR5e directly to my PC (no other network connection, wifi, router etc) and talk to it from a VM.
The host machine is running Windows 10, the VM is set up with a bridged adapter and I can ping host to vm and vice versa.
When I go to check/set the IP address on the robot it says “Not connected to network!”. And the IP address field, Subnet mask and Default Gateway all change to 0.0.0.0.
I assume that this has something to do with Windows network configuration. Has anyone experienced this issue before and/or can help?
Hello,
i am not sure, but i can try to help you, because i had same problem.
I am also running VM on Windows 10 and try using ROS in VM as “talker”.
in short. i connect my ur5 with Ethernet to my PC.
Then check IP-Adress from the robot.
VM Network setting have to be set to Bridged networking and choose your Ethernet port in Name.
Then in VM setting make ipv4 change Ip-adress to Manual and type Robot-Ip, but change the last numbers.
then turn on/off your network in VM, to be sure, that changes are accepted.
then try to ping.
