Probably more by good luck than good management I have got my Pluto recognised by SDR Console. It's on a supported chipset USB to LAN adapter, running external power to the power port of the Pluto.
I see it on my hard wired network as address 192.168.178.30 and I have set it as fixed. My ISP provides me a fixed IP address, if that matters, I don't THINK it's relevant? SDR Console is operating it correctly, albeit my lowly laptop is struggling both memory and CPU wise, but it's going on a much better PC soon, as this is just for testing.
My question is do I have to go into the Pluto software / firmware and set this IP address in there as well?
Thanks.
