We have a result, I did the ping check which showed I have basic connectivity so I disabled the ESET firewall and it worked. I have now got my selected books on my Nexus. I will just need to remember to temporarily disable the firewall when I want to connect to my device.

Thanks for your patience.

Kindest regards

Just set your firewall to allow incoming on port 9090

Glad you got it working. This networking stuff is a never-ending challenge.

There has to be a way to tell ESET that calibre is permitted to receive connections. Perhaps as theducks says, opening a port? Or perhaps it is application based, so you tell it that calibre is OK? Somehow!

Thanks theducks and chaley but I have no idea how to set my firewall to allow port 9090 or calibre application. Any ideas?

Do these directions help? I don't know if they apply to your version.

Hi everyone, I'm new and I've just taken out a phone contract with a free Tab 2, mainly to use as a book reader. I'm new to Android and I was hoping to use Calibre as it's on my pc. I downloaded Calibre Companion but because I use ESET I couldn't get it to work, no matter what I tried. Eventually I found this thread and the link to Micro Center. Hey presto, no more problems.
