Solution to no render found in Win10 - possible fix

Post by Welsige »

Hi,

I was struggling with renders not found issue, when i read some considerations about ips, and that clicked when I was inspecting the logs.

It said to be receiving an IP address from my Microsoft Loopback adapter, and not from the correct network adapter.

"Using address /169.254.250.1 found on network interface: name:eth4 (Microsoft KM-TEST Loopback Adapter)"

Thus, getting an IP that went to nowhere as I understand (not really good at networking).

So I disabled it and voilá, it found my PS3 right away.

"Using address /192.168.0.2 found on network interface: name:eth9 (Intel(R) Ethernet Connection (2) I218-V)"

I had some network monitoring Tools (PRTG) installed that I think installed that adapter.

So, theres a possible fix.

Question/Sugestion to the devs, make UMS ignore these kind of adapters, or perhaps ask while installing.
