Yea.
I've setup LAN parties,built my own gaming machines for 16 years,etc,etc.....This is probably the easiest hardware and networking there is.
I now understand REAL pain.(on a small scale haha)
------
In our brewery, we use a 36 head rotary filler/crowner to put beer in bottles.
Yesterday , the machine had an insignificant mechanical failure , and the machine lost it's brain (PLC)in the process......The PLC controls like 20+ Ethernet connected other small computers , and something has shit the bed.
The software to program the PLC is 5000$+ .
Remote access is a nightmare.
I have a half-million dollar hunk of scrap metal right now , because of "connection timed out"
FFS !!
