Can other devices connect to Twonky?
Is the TV connected to your network?

Re: Cant connect my Viera TV
Have you disabled any software firewall? It is probable that if you're running one that it is blocking access to Twonky.
No longer running Twonky
Re: Cant connect my Viera TV

Re: Cant connect my Viera TV
Is that the XP firewall or the one built into your anti-virus product? You need to check both.
No longer running Twonky
Re: Cant connect my Viera TV
good point... l checked only the XP one... i will check this as well.
do i need to do anything on my TV? on my router? i have a streamer in my network running UnPN server, is this matter?

Re: Cant connect my Viera TV
You shouldn't need to do anything else. If the network works, everything else should just work.
No longer running Twonky

Re: Cant connect my Viera TV
If you can't close your firewall, then you don't have to open any ports... or is that not quite what you meant?
Did you have another firewall installed? What is the IP address, netmask and default gateway shown by your TV? What is the IP address, netmask and default gateway shown by your XP computer (ipconfig/all will tell you that)?

Re: Cant connect my Viera TV
If you have a corporate lock down on your PC then you need to go and talk to your IT guys.
At a minimum you need Port 9000 open (default for Twonky) and the firewall must allow multicast broadcasts. Neither are usual in a corporate environment.
