Ok. Now try rebooting the host machine and after LMS is started and running, try rebooting the client to see if the Touch can reach LMS after it runs its startup routine. Just to confirm it is not a software firewall glitch, temporarily disable your local windows firewall if you already have a hardware firewall enabled at your router. Make sure the IP address assigned to the host machine has not changed after the reboot. You can readily see LMS broadcast IP address under the information tab in the web settings page. It should be exactly the same as the address shown in windows networking and the same listed under your routers assignment table. If rebooting the client reestablishes a connection, then it is more likely an OS setting conflict vs. one with LMS. Again, you can always force a static IP address in windows networking if there are any doubts or inconsistencies. Make sure it is one outside the DHCP assignment range if you do. Either way, post the LMS server log so the program experts here can pinpoint any errors specifically. Disabling all unused or unnecessary plug ins on LMS, especially older third party ones that have not been well-maintained, is always a good diagnostic practice. I am no expert on LMSs underlying code. And there is no indication yet that LMS is the problem here. But if you determine the issue is with LMS, sometimes a clean reinstall is faster and easier than hunting down and correcting an application config error. Simply reinstalling LMS off the installer (which is what you are likely doing) does not necessarily overwrite all prior settings. If you conclude LMS the problem, then consider a clean install. The steps for a complete uninstallation are in the Wiki. Be sure that you save your playlists and favorites if you do. Do a basic installation, and then enable only the additional plug ins that you are actually using or require. Again, I dont think LMS is yet identified as your problem. But if you decide to reinstall again, make sure it is a clean install. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sgmlaw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13995 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109856
