What's most weird is that it started happening on two different networks at the same time.

Correct. G is my home machine R is my work machine. Thanks for not shaming me by publicly posting my nerdy machine names.

The thing that bothers me is that the IP address you manually entered is not the IP address that calibre responds with via automatic connections. Where did you get that IP address? Is it possible that "G" is connected to your network twice?

That's the address that shows up in Calibre when I open the connect/share dropdown. It says "Stop Wireless connection [10.0.1.90 or 10.2.1.2 Port 9090]"

Oops, I had turned on Wifi a couple of days ago when trying to fix the problem. I just turned it off and will send you another debug log.

Nope. Its not usually congested, and right now I am the only one doing anything on it.

Not really. Desktop with a wired connection to the router. Phone connects wirelessly. Extender in the front of the house that other computers connect to.

I guess its possible, but since the started happening at home and at work on the same day, it seems unlikely.

This would make more sense if it didn't work if I set the address tom something else and then reset it to the default. Why would that fix it.

They do.

So, If I am getting failures with the default settings and change it to 10.0.1.90 it still fails, but if I change it back to the default, then it works.


And, If I I am getting failures with the default settings and change it to 10.0.1.2 it works.

I sent you another debug log.
