HR21/700 and Tversity

The computer must be up and running for the Mediashare feature to connect.  The hibernation scheme found on computers will cause it to disconnect.  Not sure if that's your problem, but you might try disabling that on your computer as a test.

thanks for the reply. i did turn off hibernate as well as all other power saving options even  found one for the ethernet itself and turned it off. Unfortunately it still will disappear from the menu on the directv box. I've checked the pc to make sure the mediaserver.exe was still running and nothing seems wrong on the pc end i even see the directv mediashare renderer and directv2pc media server. but nothing on tv end unless i reboot the pc an then its jus for a short while. it seems like they simply stop communicating after a period of time

ive figured out what the problem was...i was tethering my cell phone with the pc an some how this conflicted with the communication between the receiver and tveristy. simply disconnecting the cell from the pc and tveristy stays connected. hope this helps anyone else who may be having a similar issue
