Bizarre problem LAN vs WAN setup

Post by sirach »

I have made a wireless setup with UMS, windows 7 and Sharp Aquos TV with no problem.

The thing is, I've recently added Ethernet cable to my router and I am now running a physical cable from TV to router and PC to router. TV doesn't see the server anymore ...

I've try different scenario but to no avail. If I keep my PC plugged with an Ethernet cable to the router but using wireless setup on my TV everything works fine again ...

What am i missing ????

If your TV is like mine you can only have either wireless or wired selected, Not both. Check your TV setting maybe?

Yeah, I thought off that too. But after checking, I didn't do that .

I actually found the trouble tonight. I activated UPNP in my router settings... Apparently, that function is enable separately in the LAN and the WAN section
