I'm experiencing connection problems with my F25 using the ICOM Next interface. I successfully connected directly to ISTA+ with an ENET cable but switched to
bmw icom next for an ILEVEL upgrade.
In ITool Radar, I see the connection, and I can reserve the interface in Easy Connect. However,
when I launch ISTA+, all connections drop and time out. Vehicle identification fails, and I receive timeout errors across all tools, including the web admin interface. Restarting the ICOM after disconnecting it from the car temporarily resolves the issue until I attempt to connect with ISTA+ again.
Specs:
- ICOM Next: ICOM A1 Firmware: 03.22.21 (clone)
- ISTA+: 4.32.15
- ITool Radar: 1.1.1 (working fine)
- Easy Connect: 7.3.0 (working fine)
I'm using a remote IP as per the guide, and all protections are disabled in Windows. The ENET direct cable connection works perfectly.
What am I missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
