Hey guys.

So, I bought the series 5 40" LCD from hifi corruption about 8 months ago. It has been connected to my router with a static IP. It has been working fine until last week. And for the life of me, I dont know whats up with it. My PC shows its there, my router shows its there, but when I try and stream to it, it plays for 1 minutes then says that the network ie, my pc or vuze (whichever Im streaming from) has been disconnected. But as soon as I try and stream again, it has the networks visible on the TV. Stream again, 1 min, disconnect.

Nothing new has been added to the network. My DHCP has excluded the 192.168.1.105 from its address range, so there cant be an IP conflict.

Anyone having the same problem with their Samsungs? Or is it something on my network? Network includes my PC, the iPad, my Galaxy note, and my xbox. DHCP scope is 192.168.1.100-200
 
Well if you run a ping to the IP of the screen are there any timeouts? if no, then its not the network as such, rather a problem with the software that streams to the TV.
 
Nope, no timeouts. Which software though? Because it happens with windows, and vuze. Doubt it could be both?? Or the software on the TV? Tried an update, but nothing new is out there.
