This IS the Avid L2: Re: [Avid-L2] Sony PVM-2541 Auto White Balance Software monitor connection?

I tried that with a straight and a cross over cable. I can enable peer to peer on the monitor but the Sony Software is stuck in LAN and I can not activate the radio button next to peer to peer. This is true running on the vista lap top and the Windows 7 professional.

Forgive my network ignorance but the subnet masks match but not the subnets. My laptop is being assigned it's IP address through DCHP so I figure it's the Airport Extreme that is assigning the address. Would I deactivate the DCHP to do this wouldn't I? When I hooked the lap top directly to the monitor it had something like a 192.168.0.1 ish showing in the network adapter. It didn't seem to require a cross over cable, perhaps this is because the Sony monitor has a much more recent ethernet circuit that auto detects. I know in the past when I used this laptop directly connected into an Ensemble Legalizer unit I had to use a cross over cable.

I'll try the direct connection again and see what I can do to match the subnets. I wonder why the Sony monitor doesn't allow "000" in the 2nd group of address numbers from the left?

There really seems to be something basically screwy with the Sony Software in that I can't select Peer to Peer in it and I can't inter an IP address.

they will never talk to each other if they are on different subnets.

So change your computer to match the monitor.

I would also suggest to enable peer-to-peer on both and connect them with a simple cat5 cable directly.

For the computer Lap Top on Windows Vista

iPv4 address 10.0.1.84
ipv4 subnet mask 255.255.255.0
iPv4 Default Gateway 10.0.1.1
iPv4 DHCP server 10.0.1.1
iPv4 DNS Server 10.0.1.1

On Sony Monitor:

Parallel Remote:

Serial Remote=Ethernet
Monitor:
     Network Setting
     Monitor ID: 1
     Groupt ID: 1
     IP Address: 010.001.000.110
     Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.000
     Default Gateway: On
          Address: 010.001.001.001
     Connection: LAN

I mistyped in my first post. It is the Sony Monitor that won't let me enter a value of "000" in the 2nd from the left address number. Hence I tried to make the default gateway match that of the lap top but I can not enter 10.0.1.1 it will only let me enter 010.001.001.001. There is no way to set it to 010.000.001.001 and I tried scrolling all the way up but the value goes from 001 to 255 not 000 to 255. I don't even know if I need the default gateway address on. It came up default with it off.
