A friend gave me his AnywhereUSB 2.0 Plus, part number AW02-G300, serial number AW02-003679. I’ve connected it to one of the ports on my Unifi switch and have powered it up. I attached an external USB drive to the DIGI device.
My laptop connects to my home network via Wi-Fi. I installed the AnywhereUSB Manager software, version 3.1.33.1, on the laptop. Using the AnywhereUSB Manager app on my PC I can see that I’m in Service Mode. I’ve gone to Setup and made the Client ID match my PC’s name: DESKTOP-5VDSOLS.
I logged into the Digi UI software and went to System, Configuration, Device Configuration, expanded System, and set the Hostname to my PC’s ID (above).
I’ve been thru Digi’s troubleshooting AnywhereUSB® Plus User Guide.
I’ve made sure that port 18574 is open on my network.
The IP address for the device is 192.168.1.240. I can ping this successfully.
No matter if the Anywhere device is connected directly to my PC or to my switch, these are the results.
