Again, thank you for the response.
I looked at the router and Filter Multicast is unchecked, and has been the whole time. Unfortunately, as far as I can tell, the WD TV Live doesn't support entering a manual address for the media server.
I'll keep plugging away and report back.
Yes, I tried three different media servers on the XP machine. XBMC, Serviio, and Plex.
I'll have to dig around and see if I have a crossover cable to rule out the router.
I doubt it's the IP caching issue. I've reset both devices and even uninstalled the software and reinstalled...
Not the Powerlines
Thanks for your responses. As posted above, I used direct cabling last night to the router from the Server and from the WD TV. Still no love.
At this point I can only assume it's either something with the XP machine setup, or my router.
I'll look in to the VLN and...
Update
So I got home from work and plugged the server and the WD TV Live directly into the router. Still nothing. So, I don't think the problem is the PLAs.
Is there something additional I need in XP to make this work, or could it be a problem with my router?
Thanks
Frustrated with the speeds of my wireless network in streaming video, I recently purchased three ZyXel PLA4205's and one 4225.
Media Server:
Windows XP PC running XBMC (I've tried three different ones) connected to PLA.
Media Receivers:
WD TV Live connected to the 4-port 4225.
