Brightsign Players disappeared from BrightAuthor, but I can ping

Hey guys and gals 

I'm in a huge bind and am hoping someone can help me out.  Our brightsign players (2) have been working for months.  I used them last week for 2 shows and no issues.  Today I open BrightAuthor, and it takes way longer to open than normal.  Says "Not Responding" for a minute or two, then opens like normal.

When I first had Brightsign open, my 2 players were listed but couldn't publish.  When I refreshed, both player statuses changed to saying Cannot connect to (IP address).

I removed the players from the BrightAuthor and now I can't readd them.  It keeps saying that there isn't a player associated with the IP.

I CAN PING THESE DEVICES IN CMD.

If I can ping them, why can't I add them?

I have uninstalled BrightAuthor and reinstalled.

What am I missing?  I really need these things up and running 2 hours.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    RANDOMLY... 1 of the players came back up when I tried adding it.

    Has this happened to anyone before?
