I currently have windows computer running Matlab that i use to control the Turtlebot remotely. It works just fine and i have had virtually zero issues. We have about 6 other laptops configured the exact same way as the one i use.

When I try to use a different laptop, I am unable to send any commands to the Turtlebot. I receive scan data from the camera but the velocity commands do nothing.

As far as i can tell i do not specify the ip address of the workstation anywhere so i am unsure why the workstation i currently use works just fine but the other laptops dont work at all.

Any advice would be wonderful!

I am running Ubuntu 14.04.2 Indigo.

all the packages i need for matlab are installed on all laptops.
