v0.97.07 MVP problem: loads app/never finds server

[HtV]

I tried turning the firewall back on and the mvp does eventually connect but it takes about 3-4 minutes, With it turned off it takes about 2-3 seconds , i have had the recordingService listed as an exception, which seemed to work fine for previous versions. Would removing the exception then adding it again make any difference?

Cheers Jase

perhaps you should add gbpvr.exe aswell, since that is also connecting to the mvp.

Sorry, assumed you already had the GBPVR.exe file as an exception since it was working before. This clearly needs to be an exception as well as it starts up listeners on ports too, which is what the firewall blocks access to. I don't usually use Windows Firewall on my 2003 server, but I did enable it and gave both executables exception status and I was able to get a single MVP to connect. Multiple MVPs still seem to be an issue, but nothing to do with the firewall since they still have an issue with it turned off.

I have tried pinging the mvp both from my router and from the server pc , i get 0% packet loss from both, time is about 1ms this is the same with the firewall on or off. I have always had gbpvr.exe as an exception sorry i should of said.

Im not really sure what you mean by this but i do see the mvp listed in the attached devices list on my router (Netgear DG834GT).

I have ran WS_Ping Pack pro and it does list the mvp's ip address, but it does not find the name for it. It does not list the server pc from which i am running gbpvr and ping pack pro.
