descovery problem on adhoc

Post by losk »

Hi, I have this very strange problem that I can't figure out how to solve it.
I use Windows 7, MidiYoke and the new iPad.
When iPad is connected to my LAN through the router Lemur discovers the PC and MidiYoke on "Midi Targets".
But when the iPad is connected through ad-hoc connection directly to my PC Lemur doesn't discover the PC and of course I cannot connect.

The ad-hoc connection is very stable (WEP protected) and I use it on live performances. If Lemur doesn't work through ad-hoc is no useful for me.

I would appreciate any suggestion,
Thanks in advance,
Pavlos.

I want to add some information.
I think the problem is that lemur searches for the Computer name on the Workgroup instead of the Computer description.

I use OminTR app that searches for Host to connect as Lemur does, but the difference between Lemur is that it searches the Computer description.

Anyway the thing is that OmniTR works over adhoc and Lemur doesn't (it works only if connected through a router to the LAN).
I also use Touchabe and never had problem over the adhoc.

Maybe the Liine Team or someone else finds this info useful.

Regards,
Pavlos

My iPad / Lemur doesn't show up in the connect list in the editor either, but if I type in the iPad's IP address it is able to connect properly.

Hi,
Thanks for the answer.
But my problem is not in the editor but on the app on the iPAD.
On the Midi Targets I press the Unassigned on the field "From" and when I am connected through ad-hoc the app doesn't discover my PC (and of course the midi pots).
When I am connected through the router-LAN I have no problem.

Problem Solved!!

For anyone having the same problem the answer on the Windows Firewall.
Windows Firewall must be diactivated or configured for the spesific adhoc network.

If your default connection is the one with the router and not the adhoc (most common) when installing Lemur it will make changes to windows firewall but for the default network connection and not the adhoc. So, when connected to the adhoc, you must make the changes to the firewall.
