Why does Eagle try to connect to the internet?

autodeskguest
autodeskguest over 15 years ago

What components of Eagle are asking to connect to the internet and why?

I ask because my firewall pops up and alerts me that Eagle is asking for

internet access.

 

Is this just checking for updates, or is it also checking license info?

 

Thanks

    I think it is only checking for updates, because sometime  I got a message

    which tells me that there is a new version available.

     

    regards Achim

    It checks for updates.

     

    You can configure that in "help / check for updates / config" (or

    whatever the exact wording in the english version is...).
