Actually, it doesn't any more, it was a setting in my router that caused that... my local is now always http://192.168.1.118:8090 so it is the only "catalog" link I need.
The reason I like to do it this way is that I can "shop" amongst my books (I have been ereading for 4 years now and spent a fortune on books which I "re"read eventually...). You can browse the Calibre Library by Newest, Author, Title, Tags, Series etc. and get the cover and synopsis on your screen as well as the download button.
Great when you have a lot of books and can't be bothered to go upstairs to the computer...

Instructions here in post #9:

I have followed the instructions using my local IP - how do I now make the transfer from Calibre to Alkido? Should it be automatic?

Calibre server is set as "on"

tap on your catalog link for Calibre and you should see several rows of choices if you have the right ip address: By Newest, by author etc.
Tap on your choice and you should see your Calibre listing of books with the cover art, title and author, tap on the book info and you will see the synopsis and a green download button. Tap that and the book downloads to your bookshelf.

My local IP only has 9 numbers: 192.168.1.67 (according to IP book) s0 my completed url reads http://192.168.1.67:8080/stanza

Aldiko now tries to make a link but states "Web page not available"

Guess I have done something wrong, eh!

Right, that's what it does when it doesn' t have the right ip address. Here is a web post that explains how to find it using a command prompt:

http://www.groovypost.com/howto/micr...windows-7-cmd/

you could also eliminate the Stanza part, it appears to work without it.

THANK YOU : )

I should have remembered the cmd method of finding IP address lol.

Turns out address should have ended in 5 and not 7 as suggested by IP book.

I am well pleased now. You have been so patient too : )
