 Hi there...I'm running m-100 software on both my HP Compaq Athlon 64 pc running XP and my HP Probook Laptop running Windows 7.

 

 If I call from my PC to the laptop I can connect (only connects using the local IP specified in the m-100 box) and try to show content from PC to laptop it won't work....however if I do the reverse (laptop to pc) it works......only then can I show content from pc

to laptop.......it's as if I must go through the process of showing the content from pc to laptop before I can go both ways......

 

Can anyone help??

Just so I understand, the PC & the Laptop are on 10.x.x.x/24 for example so this is unlikely to be a routing/firewall issue.

I'm no Win XP/Win 7 expert but it looks like Windows Firewall might have something to do with this.
