Howie1 Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 I am suddenly unable to connect my laptop to my desktop PC via WideFS. I am using the newest versions downloaded from this forum and both computers are running Windows 7 X64 SP1. Ports 8002 and 9002 are forwarded in my router. I have atached the logs.

Yes - the process is allowed in both firewalls - I have even tried switching off the firewalls and antivirus off, but that didn't help.

See the FAQ subforum thread entitled "WideFS Server names translating into incorrect IP addresses". Your Server PC is being seen with a weird IP address Quote 48953 Trying TCP/IP host "JOHN-PC" port 8002 ... 48953 ... Okay, IP Address = 67.215.77.132 which searches show as opendns.com sited in California. Regards Pete
