Hi All,
I have a Pocketbook pro 903, and I am having problems connecting to the calibre server. If I put my IP address in the browser of my ebook reader with the standard 8080 port I get an error message (cannot load page). I tried port 8787 with the same results. Finally I tried port 80 (mind you, I really do not know what I am doing), and what I get is that "80" is dropped by the webadress, and I get to a window welcoming me to my wireless router configuration page.

Does this mean I cannot connect two devices running on the same wifi network, or am I doing something wrong? (I am trying to conenct this way as I have problems with the USB cable)
