So I had UMS working absolutely flawlessly last night. I didn't take any care during installation, I left my firewall on and just clicked through the warnings, and it installed fine. I even had my VPN left on and it was all perfect. I was streaming 1080p content with subs for hours, it was running pretty darn flawlessly. I tried some huge files, which it struggled on, so I thought if I make my PS3 wired, it'll be even better.

Didn't work. All I did was change my PS3s connection to wired, set that up on the ps3, checked it was getting an IP - the PS3 was working fine, but UMS now can't find a renderer.
Tried going back to wireless, again changing nothing else. Didn't work. Various restarts, clean installs of ums and googling later and I still can't work it out. The internets big suggestion is to us the 'Force networking on interface" option, but that doesn't display my nic like it does for others, just some generic stuff like a bunch of "WAN miniport" options, but not my connection. Tried turning uPNP on (it causes problems with my router sometimes so I just don't use it), nothing.

I'm using a PS3 updated to the latest, my router is a TP-link W8968, my PC is running windows 7 with zonealarm free as my firewall.

I've included the log file but it doesn't seem very interesting.

Any help would be really appreciated!

I heard some have had success by restarting their router. Something about IP's getting cluttered.
This might not be the problem in your case.. but maybe worth a try?

Also remember to set UMS to run with admin privileges (just to iron out any problems concerning permission)
