Is there a way to check if wallet sees monerod over the LAN?

Question

I have a monerod daemon running on a PC (IP 192.168.1.150) and a wallet running on another PC. Sometimes all works, sometimes not and shows:

Error: wallet failed to connect to daemon

I use these commands to launch the programs:

./monerod --rpc-bind-ip 192.168.1.150 --confirm-external-bind

./monero-wallet-cli --daemon-address 192.168.1.150 --wallet-file walletname

So, is there a way to check the connection between daemon and wallet?

Perhaps try binding to 0.0.0.0? It's probably a good idea then to add the --rpc-login flag too (use monerod --help & monero-wallet-cli --help to see the specific parameters and arguments) as well as the --restricted-rpc flag. — dEBRUYNE, Commented Feb 2, 2018 at 12:24
Not works. I have checked the wallet log, found this: 02-02 16:13:35.401 7f8ccd227b80 ERROR net.http contrib/epee/include/net/http_client.h:444 Unexpected recv fail 02-02 16:13:35.401 7f8ccd227b80 ERROR wallet.wallet2 src/wallet/wallet2.cpp:1216 !r.

@dEBRUYNE I did several attempts with different combinations of parameters, all fail. I also deleted the blockchain and synced it again, the same result. The wallet reaches the daemon, but it still not working. Maybe, should I open an issue on GitHub? — cialu, Commented Feb 3, 2018 at 10:06
That seems like a good idea. Although, it should be noted that your issue is likely caused by idiosyncratic factors. — dEBRUYNE, Commented Feb 3, 2018 at 18:48

With the new 0.13.0.4 Beryllium Bullet version of the daemon and CLI software, all is working fine under Linux. No more issues.

Try with this command:

./monero-wallet-cli --daemon-host 192.168.1.150 --wallet-file walletname

This seemed to work for me.

The same result, I'm thinking at issue related to my LAN. If I did nmap -p 18081 192.168.1.150, I get 18081/tcp open and also DNS resolution is fully working, so I don't understand the problem.
