Ok. Now that it is working and connecting, i never see the server name anyway. It did occur to me that naming them only makes.sense if.you have more.than one and.wish to choose each time
I just choose content server if pc is on, cloud if not
But can you suggest why, with a new tablet install, the "find content server automatically" never works.
I have a simple lan.
The calibre content server is on a.static windows 10.pc, wired, no wifi, at internal ip 192.168.0.28 port 8080
.no.passwords.
the wifi tablets are.on the same.lan. but a manual entry of that ip is always needed at 1st setup. Afrer that, all is good
