LabView installer problem : undetected CRIO in MAX

Question

Hello,
I'm working on a data acquisition project in LabView 2010 SP1 composed by a LabView Host program (XP SP3 PC) and a CRIO acquisition module. They communicate together through Shared Variables and Network Streaming.
I made an installer of my Host project composed by: runtime 2010 SP1, MAX, NI-RIO 3.6.0 driver and Microsoft Silverlight .
I created this installer on my Dev PC and installed it to a Client PC (see the joint image). The whole program works on the Client PC and the data exchange (Shared Variables and Network Streaming) is OK.
The problem is that the CRIO is not detected by MAX in Remote Devices. On the other hand, when I use the NI Network Browser, it works well (it detects the CRIO).
The other problem is that, even if I have installed the NI-RIO 3.6.0 driver, the RIO Device Setup is not present on the Client PC.
If I install all the standard drivers from the NI device Drivers DVD, it installs everything and then the CRIO is well detected and the RIO Device Setup is also installed.
My conclusion is that I haven't included all the necessary packages in my installer.
What are the necessary components to install in order to have:
the CRIO fully detected
the RIO device setup installed
Must I also install some DAQmx components ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

There is a difference between a network and subnet. I have a similiar problem where I can see the device but can not configure it. You can tell if you are on the same subnet by retireving the ip address for the client and get the subnet mask of the client machine. The example is the following:
client machine ip address 192.168.20.37 subnet mask 255.255.255.0
CRIO machine 192.168.22.15
They are not on the same subnet. If subnet is 255.255.0.0 it is on the same subnet.
