Swapping Workstations for Turtlebot

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.

Is this any different from your other question? If so, can you please update it with more info so as to differentiate it from the other one?
