*** Connection Troubleshooting
Sofa Server discovery works pretty well but there are some external factors that may interfere with it:
- Are your devices on the same Wi-Fi network?
- Did you start the Sofa Server? There should be a small sofa icon on the menu bar.
- Is the Mac firewall enabled and blocking all connections? Try disabling it temporarily. If that works, reenable and tweak its options.
- Is your router blocking multicast?
- Is your Mac connected via ethernet and your router creates a separate Wi-Fi network?
- Launch apps, quit, minimise, go fullscreen
- Open files on your Mac with the default or another associated app
