Work ) Network discovery option is turned on. For that, go to: "Control 
Panel\All Control Panel Items\Network and Sharing Center\Advanced 
sharing settings" and turn Discovery Network option on for all profiles

POSSIBLE CAUSE 10:

 Antivirus software is blocking the connection.

SOLUTION:

 If you have an antivirus software installed on your MFS / P3D 

/ X-Plane Computer, it could be blocking the connection between SOLO 
and MFS / P3D / X-Plane Computer. 
Each Antivirus software has their own options and menus, in order to 
see if the problem comes from the antivirus, you can deactivate it com-
pletely just for the test. If the connection is stablished with the antivirus 
deactivated you should look for an option that allows any connection for 
VFConnect3.exe or VFConnect3-Xplane.exe

SOLO to the router and your PC to the router also, or alternatively a direct 
cable between your PC and SOLO to enjoy completely of your SOLO.

 Your MFS / P3D / X-Plane PC is executing another 

program on the background that uses all the bandwidth of the network

mendable during the session, to close programs which make an intensive 
use of the network connection or computer processor.
