Re: can't connect between workbench & client

Hi Sam
what you are experiencing is known as "network isolation" - which occurs often on public networks to prevent multiple devices on the same network talking directly to each other. for this reason; the client cannot detect the workbench and even with an IP address; it cannot connect to it. this is a limitation of our initial version of Evothings Studio; however - we have seen this and we are currently testing a new version which uses our own servers online which act as a proxy to allow two independent devices in a network like yours to actually connect.
i can pass a reference to this chat to Micke who is heading that up and he can possibly get you to evaluate that version as part of our testing group.
