Turtlebot networking setup error

Hello, I have a problem with networking setup. I followed this tut.

http://www.ros.org/wiki/Robots/TurtleBot/Network%20Setup

at the last step, on my workstation, I ran

rostopic pub -r10 /hello std_msgs/String "hello"

and when I ran

rostopic echo /hello

on my turtlebot laptop I got this:

WARNING: topic [/hello] does not appear to be published yet

according to the tut.

The message "hello" begin printed about 10 times a second.

but that is not happening.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks!

The standard way is to reboot both the workstation and the laptop, and then check:

echo $ROS_MASTER_URI

echo $ROS_HOSTNAME

In your workstation, the Master-URI should show the IP address of the TurtleBot laptop, but the hostname is the IP address (without http://) of the workstation.

Hope it helps.
