Content server adress vs Wireless device adresses

[ottischwenk]

Windows 10/64 Pro 21H1, Calibre 5.19:

Content Server shows one address, Wireless Device two - the one from Content Server and another one (perhaps the one from the disabled Virtual Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct adapter?).

How can I make it so that only the Content Server address is used and displayed here?

I don't see disabled devices in that list. Use "ipconfig /all" in a CMD window to see what the two addresses are.

Go to Preferences / Plugins. Search for smartdevice. Push "Customize plugin" and enter the IP address you want in the "Use this IP address" box.

And how can I do this in Calibre Portable on a different network (with different addresses)?

Why is the address taken from a disabled Virtual Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct adapter?

Something is not right!

I don't see disabled network adapters. Sorry that you do.

What does Preferences / Misc / Debug device connections say in the SMART_DEVICE_APP section? I imagine it will report that two devices have valid IP addresses.

BTW: the hostility is not helping.

Hostility? Sorry, but my native language is German and Im using Google translate.

I found the error - it was an activated VBox Netware adapter.

Glad you found it. And sorry about the "hostility" comment. It was uncalled for.
