can you not use those same values for wireless device ?
is that one of the calibre IP addresses shown when u select "start wireless device connection" on share/connect tab

as Chaley said, seeing multiple addresses there is strange, e.g. all I see there is a single address which i know is this PCs local LAN address 192.168.0.72
post all that you see, or a screengrab of that interface window
do you have more than one network card installed ?

PS. someone connect me if wrong but AFAIK you can use "connect wireless device" even if the library is on a wired only PC, just like I do with content server. My library PC has no wifi turned on, but wifi on my CC tablet connects to PC on wired LAN ok
The same address as the CONTENT server needs to be used (if that is working). All that is different is the Port# (9090 is the default)
WDC connects via the local Network (in this case 192.168.0.x). It does not care where the Wifi A/P is.
IMHO Having the 'server' wired is the best , most solid, solution

OP
Open your WINDOWS Network settings: Ethernet. What do you see there under IPV4 for your Wired adapter?
