Yaesu: Multiple copies of Wires-X software running on same machine or even same network

[M0CUK]

Hi,

Is it possible to run multiple copies of the Wires-X software on the same machine or even the same network?
I am running the Wires-X on my PC, connected to an HRI-100 and an FTM-100.
I had to setup port forwarding on my router to get the the software to work.

Now I also want to setup my FT2D in PDN mode using the software which would require 2 copies of the software running.

Where would I forward the ports to? Maybe a second computer? but, what ports would I use as there are already being forwarded to the first computer?

Any ideas?

Regards

Mark, M0CUK

No, you can only run one instance of WiRES-X per computer as each instance is tied to a specific node/room number. You want two WiRES-X nodes running at the same time you need two computers.

Now, you can run multiple PDN's or one HRI-200 and multiple PDN's on one internet connection. I have had my HRI-200 and four PDN's running on one internet connection with five computers needed.

One computer with multiple Virtual Machines (like VirtualBox) would do the math.

How would I forward the necessary ports to 2 machines?

I have a FTM-400XDE running on my desktop pc and a FT5D running on my laptop using the WiresX software at the same time

Pretty sure its gonna use the same port number, but use the address of the second rig. Router should take care of the transversal.
