connection from one computer when already connected to other

Beitrag von gautxori »

hello, could you make it a feature to be able to connect from a computer, when another one is connected?
i.e.: currently MPE Android is connected via wifi hotspot to a client computer. The mobile is accessible, but the computer is not. I would like MPE to connect to another computer, but it is impossible to drop the existing connection from the mobile, and I would have to close the client application on the computer to be able to connect another computer. So, could I have MPE Android drop that existing connection (at least as an option) so I can create a new connection from another computer?

Thanks.

Thank you Mr. Icke! I'm trying to reproduce exactly the same context as the one described in the linked mesage.

May I suppose this feature is included in any new release of MPE Client, or "non-beta" releases are locked and cannot connect from a different IP? Or is it only enabled for "version 3.9 beta13"?

When translated into english, that message reads:
"It might be useful to assign a fixed IP to your phone because dynamic IP determination only works as long as MyPhoneExplorer Client is not connected"
That sentence is difficult to understand: "MyPhoneExplorer Client is not connected"... to what? Which process is doing the "dynamic IP determination"? The service (MPE Desktop) or the client (MPE Client)? Does that mean that MPE Client MUST be disconnected from which computer? :? :?

It works with the current standard version 4.3.

Please just do it and test it with one of the setting:
MPE => F2 => Connection => Fixed IP-Address
For me it also works with the 'WiFi' setting

If MyPhoneExplorer Client is NOT connected to any computer then he sends a broadcast into the network so that the computer is able to find the correct IP-address of the phone. This will not work if MyPhoneExplorer is already connected to another computer, but this affects only the detection of the IP-Adress and so it is maybe helpfully to use Fixed IP mode in this environment. The connection itself can be switched if it was allowed with the Tweak described in the other Thread
