Open socket timeout error

[alex.]

Sometime I can write to the local shared variable through data socket. But sometime cannot. Even though, I still can read/write through shared variable monitor. The error is in the open socket, said connect to peer timeout. I set timeout to 10s or left blank both not work. I am using 8.2.1 on vista. The computer has 2 lan ports. I met almost same case long time ago. I solved it by diable NETBIOS and one of the lan port. This time, I disabled netbios already. But in vista, seems not able to disable the other lan port. Any suggestion?
