The answer to this os simple. PC 1 has two NIC's of which only one of which has a default gateway assigned (NIC1) so when your pc tries to send traffic to the Multicast subnet 224.0.0.0/4 it will only do so over NIC1 as this has the default gateway. This is why things are broken for PC 2 and why PB worked fine on PC 1. So that gives you two possibilities, the first is to mess with your PC's routing table to use NIC 2 for all 224.0.0.0/4 traffic, as you work in networking I wont teach you to suck eggs and explain how to do this in detail. Or bring PC2 into the same network by maybe purchasing another wireless nic. Happy flying.

I have been working around issues with Win 8.1 networking and it has been working fine for some time, however without changing anything it stopped working, only very few of the guages work like the flaps indicator, fuel, engine oil pressure temp guages, but all the others dont. I also have the MFD GPS plugin and this also works ok. all the guages dont work, but some partially e.g i can move the rotary control on the Altimeter even though the altimeter always shows 0, but the altimeter in the games cockpit is adjusted, but this is not the case for all panels that have a rotary. e.g the VOR is not adjusted in the game when turning the rotary. I do not have any idea why this is the case. but i have been assuming it was because of an issue with Simconnect, however i now know this is not the case I very recently bought X-Plane so also tried the xplane plugin and the same guages work/dont work as per in FSX, P3D also....i am a bit stumped, how can i troubleshoot further?
