ARC Can'T Connect To Revolution Jd

I'm running ARC version 2016.08.29.00, trying to talk to a Revolution JD, from Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. It's been a year since I used the JD, but it worked fine at the time.

My wi-fi finds and connects to the unit as an access point. But ARC will not connect to it. The IP address is correct (192.168.1.1:23) and I reset the robot just to be sure. From a CMD prompt I can ping it. ARC displays a live feed through the camera. If I connect to it through my browser then the diagnostics display will play each sound when I click. I can also use the diagnostics to reboot the robot and to send all servos to 90 degrees.

Anything that uses a Play or Execute button, such as the eyes, soundboard or servos will not run. It's in this weird semi-connected mode.

I turned Firewall off but that did not help. I've rebooted the JD and my PC several times. This is a recent upgrade to this ARC version. I upgraded because my previous version from a year ago exhibited the same problems.

Any immediate help is appreciated. I'm using this JD to teach at a summer camp, so the useful window is only a few days.

Thanks.

Thanks everyone. I got the ARC executable into the Avast exclusions and all is good now.
