[Solved] All ports are being used?

Post by kCchief207 »

Hey so UMS has worked fine for me for a while until randomly it would detect on my ps3. So I checked on it and said my port was being used by another program. I thought fine I'll change the port but it turns out no port works. Apparently every number is being used. Any ideas?

If you turn off UMS and check what services are running?
To do so, if you have a wifi android phone or tablet, you can install the app Fing.
It shows you all the devices (IPs) on your network.
And for each device you can check what service is running on a particular port.

Also did you check your debug.log? Always a good idea to post that too, if you want an answer from the expert on the forum.

Solved! For some reason my ip decided it wanted to end in .11 instead of .10. No idea why but changed the forced IP to it and its working.

So you are using DHCP and your router gave you another IP number for no reason?

SpeedyQ is right -- change your network card to a Static IP and not a DHCP assigned IP from your router.
