Resolution

  • You need to work with the provider of the modem to ensure the following is done:
    • Modem is configured to allow the appropriate ports (either 3001 or 4500-4525) to be forwarded onto the private IP address of the display
    • If display is M2 or M3 based it needs to be given a static IP address that is compatible with modem.
