Connection issues

Post by Glennca »

Hiya folks

I'm having serious issues with connecting the app to Freestyler. I'm running Freestyler 3.4, Windows Xp (without SP) and a separate network (wlan) just for this purpose.

I've turn of everything that remotely reminds me of an firewall, I've not installed any anti-virus and I've quadrupledchecked the IP.

I then successfully connects my iPhone and my computer to the wlan, enters the IP in the app, and click "Connect". It will then work for a while, but then I get the message "Error occured"

It would be awesome if someone could help me with this! Thanks

Glennca

No, my device is straight out of the box. And the app works with the same Freestyler version on my Windows 7 computer...

The question is how that is possible when the phone and computer is connected to the same network... And they both have great signal.

Does the iPhone app / Freestyler server still have the issue that if the connection drops then FS needs to be restarted for reconnection to occur?
Is the apps timeout too short for the users network?
perhaps the user is receiving large amounts of trafic / interference causing the connection to briefly drop and freestlyer is blocking new connections?

Staff,

Under your VMware Fusuion Options, Change the network settings from NAT to Bridge..

This should resolve your issues.
