Does it work until you restart the robot? ---

Yes, but after restart, we can not initialize the remote SSH connection because of the overwritten Gateway Adress ---

I tried to add it from the terminal using “route add default gw 192.168.100.1” and then it seems to be persisted. Hopefully this can work as a workaround until it is fixed. ---

As far as I understand this is not a bug in our profinet stack, but rather a feature of the protocol. For what we know is that PLC can overwrite some settings in network configuration. What kind of software and PLC are you using? We’re looking into our profinet stack now, so maybe some changes will appear soon.
