[1636] 2nd external IP address not showing in Device [#10834

Post by jmcc »

Hi

Bit of a strange one, but I have two devices at work (a Samsung smart TV and a Windows phone) that connect to a Mediamonkey UPnP server at home via a router to router VPN with multicasting enabled. These devices are on work internal fixed IP addresses 192.168.29.81 (phone) and 192.168.29.120 (TV) and my home MM server is on 192.168.211.1.

However, when I go into the "Devices" tab, only the phone shows up (I assume because they share a "dummy" MAC address) and I am therefore unable to specify different auto-conversion rules for each one.

Thanks
John

I can't actually confirm if this is the issue, but I've added a Bug nonetheless: http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=10834

Are you sure both devices have the xx-xx MAC address? Do they end up sharing the same profile or does the TV fail to see MMW?

I assume as they're the other side of the router that they share the dummy MAC address XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX and therefore also share the same profile - the TV certainly sees MM UPnP OK. I'll confirm this tomorrow at work.

I've just checked and, yes, both devices share the same MM profile which I assume is associated with the MAC address. Everything on the other side of the router also shows up with a MAC address of XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX in MM.
