Is there anything special about Windows 10 that I need to worry about? I follow the instructions for loading the instant client form the oracle site, adding the ODBC connection and creating a network/admin directory in the instant client directory and include a tnsnames and sqlnet file. I click on installing the odbc in the instant client directory as well. With other OS's such as windows 7 or 8 this works no problem. I also modify the environment variables on the pc by creating an oracle_home and tns_admin entry. I also add the ORACLE_HOME path to the PATH variable as well.

I would also be interested in seeing output of a simple ping of the db host from the pc client Can you then also test a telnet/ssh connection

In our case, 99% of the time it's simply that the PCs IP isn't in the firewall to access the database.

I have a user who wants to connect from Access to Oracle. We created the System DSN for the connection. I am using the instant client for 12 on this machine. But when we test the connection or try and open it thru Access, we get ORA-12170 error, TNS: Connect timeout occurred. I've used this setup several times before without issue so what could be holding up this one pc? I googled and keep getting This may be a result of network or system delays; or this may indicate that a malicious client is trying to cause a Denial of Service attack on the server type messages......
