[QUOTE="Pat Clark, post: 874480, member: 123421"] Usage Report: Windows 7 32-bit, Media Portal 1.2.3 a. No reboot was needed after adding the Loopback Adapter. The device had already become available in Control Panel/Network Sharing Center. I normally would have rebooted, but my wife was using Media Portal at the time, so I just checked to see if I could continue without it. b. It was not filled in. I didn't know what to use, so I just OKed. At that point, Windows complained it was missing, and filled it in. Another OK, and all was well. Comments: Thank you very much. I haven't tested much yet, but it surely did not make matters worse. The original post is quite old -- I wonder if it's still applicable. Such a single-seat network setup sounds extremely common to me. It that's true, then this procedure should be made part of the installation. If it's not true, then this posting should be made sticky.
