RBK853 (RBR850 + 2 sat) and iTunes Home Sharing
I recently installed the AX6000 RBK853 (with 2 sat) and cannot get iTunes Home Sharing to work in wireless mode. The satellites are hardwired and everything but Home Sharing is working very well. Scr...
I am very thankful for the support and ideas. I appogize for the delayed responses...move-in crap to deal with.
- Switch is an unmanaged Netgear GS380.
- everything is downstream of the router
- Original new install set up:
- RBR>>GS308>>RBS2 (bonus room) (PC Desktop hardwired to GS308; wireless PC laptop connecting to RBS2 5Ghz)
>>RBS1 (garage)
- iTunes homesharing does not work on the laptop - except when hardwired to the GS308 or RBS
- Current test iteration set-up:
- RBR>>RBS2>>PC Desktop
>>RBS1
>>GS308 (A/V gear)
- iTunes homesharing does not work on the laptop - except when hardwired to the GS308 or RBS2
- Per prior recommendation, I tried shutting off the RBS and forcing the laptop to connect to the RBR. Same result...no home share via wireless.
One suggestion to test that I have not attempted is to connect the Desktop PC to the RBR and try the wireless laptop again. Unfortunately, I haven't found my 100' patch cable to run that far. Working on it.
