Servioo does not connect with Static IP

Hi, i would first like to say that i've been very pleased with servioo during the year i've used it.

My problem is that i can not get servioo to be detected on the 2 devices i stream to when i'm using static IP, as it is right now i have to change from static to dynamic everytime i need to stream something to my devices.

I've googled like crazy but i'm not to great with networks so i'm guessing the solution is pretty simple.

Servioo host computer, static IP 10.0.0.50 / dynamic IP 10.0.0.1

XMBC media center (i've tried with both static and dynamic ip without any change on the device)
Panasonic Viera TX-42ST50Y ( - || - )

On dynamic ip on the host computer it works flawlessly and i've been really happy with how it works.
But when i change to static IP i have sometimes found servioo on my TV or XBMC while using static but i've just gotten an error message similar to this "Cannot connect to media server"

I'm pretty sure there is a simple solution to this and i much appreciate any time you can spare to help me. I will monitor this thread throughout the day so you can expect quick responses

What netmask number are you using with your static address? In most cases it should be 255.255.255.0. Compare it to what your other network devices are using. It must match.

Wow i knew it was silly easy.

I've always set my Static to 255.0.0.0 , always and my other devices was ofcourse 255.255.255.0 by default.

I knew it would be easy, but not this easy !
Thanks a bunch for the help :)

Thread is solved and can be closed.
