Bench Setup not working with NBT Evo

[Blackline]

Hello,

borrowing this thread as I'm trying to connect an EntryNav2 to my pc on bench.
I tried with wiring to the ethernet pins in the quadlock and then assigning an IP with DHCP on the PC. Arduino is keeping it awake. Screen showing no signal (wrong CID coding).
I can ping the HU and connect with Tool32, but Esys (connection via gateway URL) just won't list it when I press read ECU. Any ideas?

I could try with a ZGW 02 8SK I can borrow. Anything I should prepare on the ZGW before connecting it to the HU?
Will a mismatching VIN in ZGW trigger component protection on the HU? Flash it to change VIN or is there any other way (Tool32)?

Thank you
