Can’t Access Server

5andy · 12-20-2024, 01:43 PM

I’m having trouble connecting to my calibre server on anything but the host laptop. When I view the server in the host browser the location number is different than the server connection number in the calibre app. I’m using windows 10 and have a kindle paperwhite 11th gen. Any help would be much appreciated.

What is the IP address shown in the calibre application? If you are seeing 127.0.0.1, that will only work from the computer calibre is running on. If you see ::1 (with or without a /128, that's the IP V6 equivalent). Remember, there's no place like 127.0.0.1!
