I control my DSLR D7000 with my Macbook
My macbook is at home
My telescope outside.
I use a Belkin Home Base F5L049ea to connect USB over IP my devices (DSLR + Mount)
I telescope is a Celestron C8 AS-GT.
I tried to used Ekos to capture :
- it works when DSLR is directly connected on USB of my Mac.
But it doesn’t work when I used my BELKIN USB over IP.
I tried with Smart Shooter 4 (in Trial). It works well.
By the way, Ekos works fine to control my Celestron C8 AS-GT mount.

I don’t know why it is not working on Ekos.
Do you use USB over IP with DSLR ? do you have to choose a special configuration for DSLR when using a device USB over IP between computer and DSLR ?

I bet this is a gphoto issue. Try to capture with gphoto and see if it works.
gphoto2 --debug --debug-logfile=gphoto.txt --capture-image-and-download
