the rigs definitley need stby mode ON; else you cannot turn on the righ after a poweroff.
re the restarting of the rig – if wfview cannot close the connection cleanly, the rig will keep
the LAN “connected” – meaning that you cannot reconnect. Yes a restart wil help here to clean
but generally wayt a minute or two will clear the rig’s idea of being connected and you can try again.
I don’t have a mac so maybe Phil or Elliot can help you more here,
