I have a home DLNA server and am hvaing trouble getting wireless connections to see it.
For simplicity my network looks like this:
FIOS Actiontec Router (Gen 1 I think, its not gigbyte)->Netgear Gigbyte switch->DLNA Server hangs off this->2nd Wireless Router
I have my Netgear Gigabyte switch connected to the FIOS Router via hardwire - I have no problems for all devices connected to the Netgear/2nd router - everything works fine.
If I have a device connected via wire to the FIOS router everything works fine.
My issue is only if I have a device connected via wireless to the FIOS Router - it cannot see the DLNA device but it can see everything else (computers, xbox, internet, etc...)
If I connect the device to the 2nd wireless router it can see the DLNA device just fine(this wireless router is in my basement so connection isnt strong and reason I want to use the FIOS one)
For the life of me I cant figure out why a wireless connected device to the FIOS router would behave differently than a wired connection? Ive had this issue with my wireless printer as well and connecting with other devices.
Thoughts?

Ok so that worked - any idea why that worked and am I losing any capability on my home LAN?
