I have sideloaded a few torrent apps that have the remote web interface support but when I enable it,it sets the ip address to 192.168.49.1 (it doesn't let you edit this,only the port), rather than 192.168.0.3.
If i do the same thing on my android phone,it supplies the correct ip address. Have nvidia blocked this function or am i doing something daft?
I am not rooted, would that change this odd behavior?
A second question is how do I tell my torrent app to download direct to a folder on my nas. The path to my nas doesn't appear on the list, in the section you choose download location.
Any help would be appreciated
192.168.49.1 is the ip address for the shield controller and similiar wifi enabled devices. I had this issue with servers ultimate pro.
I wish i could tell you how to fix, as previously i tried everything, but eventually i took my shield in for another one. Havent had that ip get in the way since. Why it was an issue on my previous one, i dont know.
My only suggestion to you, is to check if you can change the actual device the app tries to use as the source for the ip address.

Yet another way that your device can be protected is whenever it's able to hit the internet. It would update a dynamic DNS entry on your account at DynDNS.org with hopefully a public IP address it gets and from there, if you have a program like SOTI Pocket Controller Professional, you can instantly gain remote access to the device. That's just one program of many that could benefit from this.
Is there any program for the Pocket PC that updates a dynamic DNS name there?
Any news on programs like this?
Would be very much appreciated!
If you look up posts by OdeeanRDeathshead you will find a discussion somewhere (sorry, don't remember the exact link) that you can't get a public IP over GPRS connection, so unless the phone it self initiates a connection you can not reach it.
This means that unless you device is connected via WIFI a program like this would be useless.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
OK, I understand that.
I found an IP using www.whatsmyip.org. For example 123.123.123.123
I'm using my phone to connect to an Exchange Server. But I only want my phone to reach te server, so I have set up my firewall to forward (NAT) certain ports from source 123.123.123.123 to the Exchange Server. The rest of the IP's are going somewhere else.
But the IP changes of course, guess T-Mobile has more gateways in use. Maybe to another everytime you connect.
Is there a program that sends a query to whatsmyip.org (or another site like this) and then updates the IP address in a DNS record (like dyndns.org). Any help would be appreciated.
I didnt know how 2 name this thread, I need an app. for pc that wil check (once a hour)my IP adress on desktop and when it changes it sends email thru outlook for example with new IP. Problem is i use remote desktop on my Universal to connect to home computer (to start some downloads...). but my IP addres changes from time to time. I know thats litle bit of topic, but if anyone knows somethink like described above, thanks
There is a web site that already handles this.
Dynamic DNS
http://www.dyndns.com/services/dns/dyndns/
no-ip.com, etc.. just do a search for dynamic dns...
now if i could find a dynamic dns client to run on my PPC.. well one that is free anyway
...like 'AndFTP' & 'SwiFTP'. Can someone please be so kind as to post tutorial? I am using my computer through a Cordless router. I thought I saw a post here about a similiar app but cannot seem to find it. Thanks.
I just installed SwiFTP. Does anything else need to be installed on the computer? I am already using a FTP program on my Win Vista. I just installed it on the phone and typed in the username and password that I made up, but how to see start seeing the files on the computer? I see the app is running at the top of the black banner.
some cell phone carriers filter port 21 the default port for FTP
so you might not be able to use them
i had to change it to another port
what are you trying to do with the FTP?
you need a FTP client if you want to download stuff
you don't need a FTP server on your phone
Thank you. I would like to access my computer from my phone or/and vise versa. I read somewhere where someone is doing just that. So which FTP client app do I need?
the 2 you mentioned are pretty much the best at the moment
but none of them supports soft ftp which is more friendly with proxy and firewalls setup by the phone carriers
you just need to type in the address of your computer, and the port of your ftp server at home, then you can connect to it
make sure you use a port that is not blocked
Thank you. How do I find the FTP address on my computer? I am on a wireless router.
you need something like no ip or dynDNS
and also setup your router to allow traffic through the port you want
OK, thanks but you mention setting up the router, which is something I cannot do. I had it installed by someone else. You mentioned my computer's IP. Again, I ask, how do I find my computer's IP?
I wish there was a step-by-step somewhere on the net to install and setup this thing.
if you can not configure your router, then it will not work
you can get your ip by using the software from noip and dynDNS as mentioned above
The IP number the streamer shows is just the local IP, meaning I can only connect from the local network???
If you want to access the streamer from outside your network and the streamer is on a local-only IP address then you'll need to set up a port forwarding rule (and possibly a corresponding firewall rule) on whatever device does the routing on your network (usually the ADSL Modem or Cable Router on a home network).
If you have a static IP for your ISP you can create a port forwarding rule in your router so that say the port that splashtop is running on is 6783, then you will forward all TCP/UDP traffic from port 6783 to the internal IP that is displayed in splashtop. Then in the splashtop app you set it up so that it connects to your home's ip address (you can find this by going to whatismyip) and port 6783.
So for example: the ip address for my home (from whatismyip) is 01.230.29.29, and splashtop is showing me 192.168.0.199, as well as port 6783 (you can see this under network in the desktop app), i will go in to my router, port forwarding, and then create a rule where any traffic to and from local/remote port 6783 will go to the computer at 192.168.0.199.
This is really easy and permanent if your router supports mac address reservation so that your computer will always have the same internal network IP. It is also easier if you have a static IP, however if you don't have a static IP you can use something like DynDNS's dynamic IP service to have an ip that will always connect to your home regardless of what the ip changes to.
Great video here, got it running the 1st try following this video.

Hey anyone using the latest verison of splashtop 1.4.5.3 on their pc? For some reason now, everytime my pc start up the splashtop desktop client does not start up even tho the setting for it is enable. I always have to use logmein to log into my pc and start the app. Anyone else? I never had this issue before updating to 1.4.5.3.
Thanks guys.
If you go to portforward.com it will go step by step with all your settings.

its the same for me. I havent found a way to fix it.
Sent from my awesome Asus Transformer using XDA's premium app.
I set up remote desktop with mycloud/splashtop on my tf101. I can locally remote access my computer on the home network.
But I want to be able to access my computer from any network. Would the fact that when I was asked for permissions on my pc for either private networks or public networks, I checked private be the reason why i can't connect when using a network outside of my home network? If so, how do i change this permission.
Right now, when i try to connect to my computer using an outside network like my mobile data connection tethered from my phone, it says cannot reach.
You will need to do a port forwarding rule on your router. There r threads about this just do a search.

Is that the only thing I'd have to do? I wouldn't have to add it as a new device connection on my transformer would I?
i forwarded the 3 ports from this link http://support-remote.splashtop.com...nect-to-my-home-computer-from-outside-of-home
and still it says cannot reach.
Also, I enabled discover over internet with my google account on my computer.
under the status tab on the splashtop application on my pc, it says the streamer is online with the following ip addresses, and only my local area connection is listed.

You need to set the connection with your WAN IP not your local IP. On your PC go to whatsmyip.org or similar to find out what your current WAN IP address is.
If you don't have a static IP address your WAN IP will likely change at some point. You can get a free account at dyndns.com and set it up in your router (Google it). You can then connect to your PC using YOURUSERNAME.dyndns.org or whatever you setup in DynDNS.
The alternative is to use TeamViewer or LogMeIn or similar which will automatically keep track of your PC whenever it connects to the internet.
Remote access can be real pain in the butt when you are accessing over the WAN.
As mentioned in posts above you need to set up port forwarding on your router, ensure there are relevant firewall exceptions and use your external facing IP address and set up a dynamic DNS account if you don't have a static IP - some routers have built in support for dynamic DNS.
Log me in is a good free service for this but the android app is pricey (and not very good IMO) - while the interface is not ideal it does take away all of the annoying hassles.
If you do go down the dynamic DNS, port forwarding route you might find that remote desktop via 2X RDP or similar is better than splash top anyway - although you can't do remote desktop on windows vista/7 home editions.
good video here, got it working very first try following stepby step

nvm turns out i only forwarded the ports on my router firewall. after also forwarding the ports in my modem i can now access from an outside network

Just an FYI, but auto discovery doesn't work on the Android client yet, though it is coming (it is experimental in iOS).
Wyse PocketCloud does have this facility, though it doesn't stream video/games like Splashtop.

I would try TeamViewer. On your PC you can install the host version. That way you can access your PC before login. TeamViewer works without making changes in your router/firewall.
The Android TeamViewer client is free.

I finally fixed my issue with doing this last night. I was forwarding all 3 ports but I was doing TCP and UDP (which I must say I've done many times before and never had an issue) but I removed the forwarding from UDP field in my router and just left the 3 ports forwarded in TCP field. Today I can now connect and perfectly use my PC from work using Splashtop w00t!
