Homestream not showing up as a sever on KDL-40NX723

I have installed Homestream console 2.0 on my Viao and it shows the TV as a n active device. However the TV is not finding the Homestream server. I have done the follwoing to no avail.

Reset the router, BT home hub 3

Factory reset the TV

gone through server diagnostics the results are PS media Server Succeeded

Viao XXXX@XXX.com Failed

Vaio XXX1@XXX.com Failed

but no Homesream.

I am now at a lost as what to do to next?

Hi there

As a suggestion:

Give the TV a fixed IP address
Ensure that you have selected the correct "profile" in the homestream status tab.
In the Homestream console's Status tab - Add the VIAO's network IP address to the "Bound IP address" section.

If that still fails

Turn TV off from the wall for 60 seconds and switch on again
Reboot Laptop and ensure that Homestream is running once started

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Thank you.

That did the trick, the 2nd option worked so easily should have tried that first!!

Excellent - Im glad it worked for you. I really should have wrote that second option first, in a Keep It Simple approach
