I didn't set up any firewall on the computer, nor on the tablet. If one is running on either device, I'm not aware of it.

I'm not sure what
SMART_DEVICE_APP refers to.
If it's the tablet, I had to change the IP adress to the more similar one displayed in Calibre, but that didn't change anything.

I don't think so. How can I tell?

I'm afraid this is like Chinese for me.

What is the
linux box? The linux computer? or the 'box' provided by my provider (we call it a 'livebox' in french...)
