asked about some of my settings and said it could be a faulty router and I should ask VZ for an exchange.
#Setting up ps3 media server windows 7 Pc#
I rebooted the router, PC and PS3 and still cannot see or connect with the media server on the wired desktop.Ĭalled Verizon support who put me in contact with a tech at Actiontec. I tried one proposed solution by finding and disabling the IGNP proxy on the Actiontec (page=6059) which worked for some with a similar problem who were using apple products. So the problem appears to be with an Ethernet Wired connection to router. However, my PS3 can link to the Media Server (also WMP 12) on my wireless windows 7 laptop.īut, when I connect my laptop via Ethernet to the router the PS3 loses and can no longer find the WMP 12 media server on my laptop until I return the laptop to a wireless set up.

My PS3 can access the internet using the Actiontec router but not the media server on the desktop PC. Same settings show in the “Network and Sharing Center” on my desktop PC. My desktop WP 12 is set as before my switch to FIOs to “automatically allow devices to play my media” and under “more streaming options” set to show “devices on all networks” an “unknown” devise (with same MAC address as PS3) is listed and allowed. Now my PS3 using a wireless connection can no longer find or link to the media server (WMP 12) on my windows 7 desktop PC, which is linked via Ethernet cable to the Actiontec router. I recently switched from TWC internet using a lynksys wireless router to FIOs internet with an Actiontec MI 424 Rev I router with the latest firmware.
