HDLDumx problem

Hi all,
I've just tried to transfer a game onto my PS2 hard drive via hdldumb, over my network. I get the following error:

"A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable host"

I don't know much about networking so this error is a mystery to me, does anyone know what could be causing this?

I have had HDLDumb working before, and I havent changed anything since, so I don't know whats going on. i've tried switching off my firewall, and I've tried a different ethernet cable. I have restarted my pc with the ps2 still running as host and attempted to connect straight after booting.

I thought I'd give execFTP a go to check if it's just a problem with HDLDumb, but I cannot connect using this either - it gives the error
"no connection to host" or something along those lines.

any ideas?

Thanks
P

PC is running winxp SP2

the IP you're using most likely changed.

The IP displayed on the PS2 is the same, it is the default setting - 192.168.0.10
this is the address I am connecting to with HDLDumb.
The IP address of my PC should not have anything to do with it, should it?
cheers
