Okay guys,

I know the answer:

the reason for this is, that eclipse fails to look for the second ethernet blaster because the first one is unable to be scanned.

In my command line tools of course it works, because I specify correct cable.

In eclipse apparently it does not work because if it fails to scan the first one, it assumes that there is no other server. This is wrong assumption. I file a bug at altera
