[SOLVED] Cannot get Homestream 2.0 work with my Sony Bravia

Hi,

I have recently bought a Sony Bravia KDL-32W653A. And when I first installed the TV and HomeStream 2.0 everything worked like a charm!

A couple of days later (nothing had changed configuration-wise) my TV could no longer "see" my HomeStream server. I then made a factory reset on the tv, but still the TV couldn't see the server (The server could see the TV though - showing a green dot when it was on and a red one, when it was off).

I then tried to uninstall HomeStream and reinstalling it. Now HomeStream can no longer see the TV!

My TV has the newest firmware available: PKG4.001EUA
Windows 8.1 - all patches installed
Java: Version 7 update 45 (newest available)

The TV is connected via WIFI and it can connect to the internet via my Technicolor router.

Any hints on what to do?

/Ole

What firewall do you have?

Ah, forgot to mention firewall.

Windows build-in. And all TCP and UDP ports are open (and rules are active!)

Problem solved!

And I am very sorry for having posted above question! On the other hand, the solution might be one others can use as well...

All I had to do, was turn off my router, wait a minute and turn it on again!

Feel embarrassed that I didn't try that before posting here! :oops:

Thanks to all who read and commented.
