Mates ,
i'm having some problems in connection with my gf's F48..
I've downoladed ISTA+ and 100% followed the install guide, but none of the SW is able to obtain a connection with the car iva ENET cable.(D/P/Esys)

I already had all the SW for manage my e46 (Winkfp,Inpa,DIS,Coder32 etc etc) and these are working via K/D Can, so i didn't istalled the standard tools provided with the Torrent file,

i've noticed that after the ISTA install I have 1 ediabas folder in addition to the one used by the E46 part and the other one is the target one for ISTA.
as i dont' want to mess up things by modifying the COM previously assigned COM ports for KD Can cable
is it possible that the issue for ISTA is given by this additional Ediabas folder? or better, by the ediabas.ini settings in it?
or ENET is a thing and KDCAN is an other and settings are not influenced by this?

Ediabas.ini shows OBD connection mode, but into the new Ediabas folder (the one for ISTA) I also have an Ediabas configurator.exer that allows me to select the interface (thing that I don't have when I load any ISTA) but it refers to the other Ediabas\bin\ediabas.ini for setting (and thise lead me to this legitimate doubt)

I have not tested ENET yet.

However, I believe you can change the settings to hop back and forth if you click the (wrench/spanner) in the top right when ISTA is loaded.

Then it will show Interface Type:

Edibas Default Settings (edibas.ini) - This is what is currently selected

You'd want to select: Dealer Organization ICOM / ENET Local Area Network (For F-Series, etc)

ok problem solved, firewall and a wrong IP setting on LAN were causing the issue....

now a quick question

My ISTA is 4.14, from 2018, no problem for diagnosis, but in the eventuality that I want to update SW on modules this will use an older Database right?

is there a way to update it without installing a newer version of ISTA?? (like we used to do with SPdaten for standard tools)?
