Have you ruled out all the other connectivity issues? Can you see the PLC in RSLinx without issues?

device setting all keep default setting, only Name and controller IP changed accordingly,  
I noticed Ignition V8.0 Device setting has Connectivity Port : 44818 (default), don’t know what is meaning? whether OPC connection need to be set?

Why not contact support where someone can remote in to your box and help you? Connecting a PLC is very simple.
