Try turning off the firewall to see if it works then?

Where did you get the computer from? We have had this problem before and had people come in to the shop and had to set the system up for them.

When you are trying to register the media reciever you have to make the desktop accept the registration of the media box. This is done in the VAIO media setup program found on the desktop, this is described in the Network Media Receiver Gide CD. If you are missing the setup paper and the CD i can get the info for you.

I bought the computer from John Lewis. I have taken it back and the origional problem was a corrupt file. I have done a system restore and in the shop they managed to get the media receiver and the computer to find each other and watch a video clip from the computer on the tv. When i got the computer back the two devices were not fining each other. In the shop the DE30 had a pink LED showing the ad-hoc, but now is flashing red. Can you help me witht he steps to set up the two devices?

When i have the media receiver turned on and in the settings menu, when i try to register the device, a message saying cannot register the device. I have the media server on and it seems to send out a signal for 5 minutes. Is this the correct way to do this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi N&S

You don't have metal in your walls do you? This can affect wireless networks.

No the house is only 2 years old and is modern design. Will try the manual to see if there is something obvious that i am missing

Ah I see, as my friend had that problem.
I would double check all your settings.

Would that be John Lewis Aberdeen by any chance? If it is i worked on your computer with Alex.

If you want i can drive round one night and help you set it up.
