Those port 1900 packets are the TV trying to find a media server, but no one responds to them. I have not tried to get UPnP working across subnets (yet, but I plan to in the future), but you could look at: http://frinring.wordpress.com/2010/07/27/first-release-of-cagibi-prototype-of-cacheproxy-daemon-for-upnp-device-listening-and-publishing/ I haven't d/l'd the source, but it says it's an SSDP proxy, and it could possibly work by running on the router that is on both networks... Somehow those SSDP discovery/announce packets need to make it across... Once the multicast SSDP packets get across, the rest happens on normal routable IP, so there shouldn't be additional issues, though as I said, I haven't tried it myself... Also, make sure that once they do, that the Sony TV has the proper routing to the necessary boxes...It's easy to set the default route wrong, or in some cases not set it (I did this once) causing the device to not know how to send the proper replies... Good luck! -- John-Mark Gurney Voice: +1 415 225 5579 "All that I will do, has been done, All that I have, has not."
