Hello, To verify Ethernet comms integrity during immunity testing (EN55024 & in particular, Surge, Fast Transients & RF Conducted), we use - or did until it broke! - an old Toshiba laptop to communicate with the EUT Ethernet. This laptop worked well, as it was immune to the immunity tests that we were running and any comms problems were always attributable to the EUT.
Can anyone recommend a make or model of laptop (available in the UK, preferably) that they have found to be robust? I realise that there is possibly not a straight forward answer, as there may be different Ethernet chipsets used during production runs making production runs of the same laptop different. Any advice however, would be appreciated before we go off and spend money.
