Hi,
I've tried this very new Alfred remote thing. It makes me excited. But I currently found that I could only connect via "direct"
I've done the suggested steps, checking the network, no firewall running, restarting both devices.
I am able to connect using "direct", but my IP addresses are not static (an office Wi-Fi network). I do observe that the "Router" address of my MAC and my phone are not the same.
Here are my answers to the troubleshooting questions.
1. Same Network?
Mac:
IPv4 : 128.237.175.188
Subnet Mask : 255.255.240.0
Router : 128.237.160.1
Iphone:
IP: 128.237.220.123
Subnet Mask : 255.255.240.0
Router : 128.237.208.1 (different here!)
2. Network Type?
University
3. Restart?
Yes, both.
4. Can you IOS see your MAC?
No, keep saying "finding Alfred"
5. Anything blocking network?
No, firewall not on, nothing else I installed myself does that.
Best,
Hector
