In early 2000 I became increasingly frustrated with hardware review sites praising less than satisfactory products. The saying: “if you want something done right, do it yourself” applies here. I wasn’t satisfied, so I did it myself; and here we are years later.

    Have same disconnect issue, setup sockso but when I try to access it from one of my other pc’s it maxes out the cpu on the HP media server which kills all connectivity to it. Have tried several times with no luck, can access it while rdped into media server, although cpu is still high. Gave up on it…

    Looks good But I set this up on my HP MediaSmart server and whenever I try to access Sockso from a remote computer it kills the network connection on the server, The router doesnt even detect the server?!? only way to correct this is a reboot…any suggestions?
