Networking the cDAQ 9188 - No "Network Devices" in MAX

Hi all:

I am having issues connecting my NI 9188 cDAQ via ethernet to my computer. MAX does not display it in its directory nor does it display the "Network Devices". Based on the guide NI provides, I don't know what else to do (I can't access the modules in a LabVIEW project which is my problem). 

I did use the online browser tool that seems to be the equivalent of MAX and that works fine - I can see the IP address of the controller and it shows which chassis slots are being used by what card. 

I tried manually inputing this IP into a remote system in MAX but that didn't work.

Any thoughts on how I can network the controller onto my host computer so I can actually use it in a LabVIEW project.

I have LabVIEW 2012 32 Bit. Would a student version be causing the problem?

Thanks a lot.
