Hello,
I am a new Toradex user. I did a fresh install of the Torizon IDE.
The device is shown under “Network Devices”, but when I try to connect the IDE reports “Trying to connect to 192.168.178.20…ERROR :: Error trying to connect to verdin-am62-… : Host ip is not set or is empty”
A workmate tried the device on his setup and it works.
Any tips how to solve the problem? (I am not a network-expert).
Specs:
Verdin-AM62
Mallow Carrier Board
Host:
Windows 11
VS Code 1.95.1
Toradex IDE: 2.6.187
WSL: Torizon
Ethernet Adapter (Windows): 192.168.178.21/255.255.255.0
WSL vEthernet (Windows): 172.31.176.1/255.255.240.0

To resolve the connection issue with the Torizon IDE, you should focus on the following steps based on the provided context:
Subnet Configuration: The Torizon device (Verdin-AM62) is currently on a different subnet (172.31.190.28) compared to your host’s Ethernet adapter (192.168.178.21). This is likely causing the connection error. You need to configure the Torizon device to use an IP address within the same subnet as your host, such as 192.168.178.x.
Update IDE Settings: Ensure that the Torizon IDE is configured to connect to the correct IP address of the device. The IDE is attempting to connect to 192.168.178.20, which is incorrect given the current device IP. Update the IDE settings to reflect the actual IP address of the device once it is on the correct subnet.
Firewall Settings: Check your Windows firewall settings to ensure they are not blocking the connection to the Torizon device. You can temporarily disable the firewall to test the connection, and if successful, configure the firewall to allow traffic to the device.
Compare with Working Setup: Since your workmate’s setup works, compare your network settings with theirs to identify any discrepancies. This might help you pinpoint any configuration differences that could be causing the issue.
By ensuring both the Torizon device and your Windows host are on the same subnet and updating the IDE settings accordingly, you should be able to resolve the connection error.

The network setup of my workmate is similar to mine (physical and virtual networks settings).
But when he fire up the IDE, in the output console shows more lines.
