[SOLVED] Bravia does not recognise the server anymore

I have a Bravia KDL-32CX520 TV with wifi addapter and serviio 0.6.2 installed on my windows 7 PC. Streaming content from my PC to the TV worked like a charm, untill recently. Now the TV doesn't recognise the server anymore and the server can't find the TV. I have searched this forum but can't find an answer to my problem. Can anyone help me?

Re: Bravia does not recognise the server anymore

Thanx, but i have tried that. It says it cannot find any server.
The wifi-adapter on the TV is working fine. I can watch youtube etc. thru Bravia-internet.
I think it probably is something with my windows firewall, but I cannot find what.

Re: Bravia does not recognise the server anymore

What is your network setup? router IP address, devices IP address?

Re: Bravia does not recognise the server anymore

The set-up is simple. Router connects with PC and TV. PC and TV should be able to connect as well, but they don't.

Router's IP is 192.168.1.254

PC's data given by the router:
Information
Status: Active
Type: Generic Device
Connected To: WLAN (Wireless)
Allowed on WLAN: Yes

Addressing
Physical Address: d0:df:9a:d7:a4:f5
IP Address Assignment: DHCP
IP Address: 192.168.1.70
Always use the same address: No (but it ususally is this one, this is also the only IP Serviio recognises as Cyberlink SoftDMA)
DHCP Lease Time: 0 days, 20:30:14

Connection Sharing There is no game or service assigned to this device.

TV's data given by the router:

Information
Status: Inactive
Type: Generic Device
Connected To: WLAN (Wireless)
Allowed on WLAN: Yes

Addressing
Physical Address: 4c:e6:76:1d:ac:5d
IP Address Assignment: DHCP
IP Address: 192.168.1.75
Always use the same address: No (only the last digit varies, I think)
DHCP Lease Time: 0 days, 6:39:52

Connection Sharing There is no game or service assigned to this device.

Thanx, for your trouble :)

I suggest to fix the IP address of all devices on the router settings or manually fix all devices IP address (use router IP for DNS, and 255.255.255.0 for mask))
On serviio console, delete all device list, save, restart serviio sevices and refresh device list.

Thanx for the suggestion, but I don't think the router allows different settings and I simply do not know how and where to 'manually fix all devices IP address". Could you enlighten me?

Re: Bravia does not recognise the server anymore

Thanx for your trouble, but the problem seems fixed now. I rebooted the router and now everything is working fine again. So apparently it was something in the router. But I still wonder what exactly.
