First be sure you use a wired network (i am just say’in this over and over in case other people read this as well). Back to Topic: If the 12-core should render as well go to the prefs and reduce the number of cores in the TR Prefs by one. I recommend to install the TR client on the host machine and uncheck the local machine instead – so you have two different processes (c4d and 1x tr client). The benefit in your scenario: If the client crashes your host c4d is still running.
