Title: UPnP-Server not recognized
Post by: hamo2009 on October 25, 2009, 05:50:19 AM

Hello!

I have the following problem:
My UPnP-Server (Firmware 1.07, activated, root) is neither recognized by my PC, nor by my WAP-8500 (Teac).

Anyone who can help?

does it appear on your network at all?
can you map a drive to it from your PC?

Yes, everything works perfectly: iTunes-Server, Samba,... work as they should!

Only the UPNP-Server is not visible in my devices.

I tried to disable/enable it, rebooted, etc. --> nothing helps :(

How are you trying to access the UPnP AV media server on your PC?

As i've written before: Neither it is not seen on my network, nor can i access it directly :(
I've tried it with different pc's...

What application are you using to access the UPnP AV media server with your PC? What operating system are you running on your PC?

I've tried with the following combinations:
- PC, Windows 7, Windows Media Player 11, Winamp, TwonkyMedia 1.2
- PC, Windows Vista, same Players as above
- PC, Windows XP, same Players as above
   --> DNS is not seen as UPNP-Server in my network (every other application on DNS runs fine)
- Teac WAP-8500
- Noxon iRadio
- Samsung DLNA-TV
- Popcorn-Hour

So i simply can say: the UPNP-Server on my DNS does not seem to work... (other UPNP-Servers in my network, such as Popcorn-Hour and Twonky-Server on one of the PCs are seen and work properly...)

I assume you are referring to Windows Media player 12 running Win7 I dont believe WMP11 has a feature to support UPnP AV media servers such as this WMP12 has a feature called "Other Librarys" which is what I think you may be referring to. The UPnP AV media server on the DNS-323 seems to work with just about any media device I have tried it with that supports UPnP AV media servers. Please provide me the setups for accessing a UPnP AV media server in WMP12.

Since the Windows7 PC is not mine (a laptop borrowed from a friend) and the main "clients" should be the WAP-8500 in my living room and the iRadio in my bathroom, this would not help me at all :(

I think i have to change to another nas that fits to my needs :(

Thanks anyway for your help.

i have a feeling its a problem with the router (or it's settings), and has nothing to do with the NAS.

no it's not.
i've tried to connect directly and the other servers (popcorn, windows with twonky) run fine ...

No further ideas why it won't work?
