Avast firewall blocks Airserver and Android Smart View
« on: March 09, 2019, 10:40:13 PM »
I've been searching around trying to find a solution to this. With Avast firewall enabled, I am able to connect to my PC using Smart View, however it just shows up as a blank screen. When disabling my firewall it works. I'm sure there's some setting that is being blocked but cant figure out what is messing up. I don't need a link on how to create an exception, I need to figure out what setting is blocking the mirrored screen from actually showing up with Airserver.

Setting up Firewall Application Rules in Avast Antivirus
https://support.avast.com/en-eu/article/Antivirus-Firewall-Application-Rules

=================================================================

NOTE: The Network profiles control the settings which determine how strictly Firewall protects your PC.

Private: A lower level of security suitable for when your PC is connected to a trusted network such as your home or work network.
This profile enables better connectivity, and permits all communication within the network.

Public: A higher level of security suitable for when your PC is connected to a public network such as in a cafe or airport.
Because public networks present greater security risks, no incoming communication is permitted when this profile is set.

I'm now looking at testing custom packet rules for AirServer.exe and AirServer Universal by setting EVERYTHING to allow In/Out for TCU/UDP, but still the same thing. I think it's another app rule thats actually causing this right now, but no clue what it could actually be...

3/9/2019 4:16:38 PM      0   0.0.0.0   8008   TCP   In   C:\Program Files\App Dynamic\AirServer\AirServer.exe   Public Tcp/Udp In Block

Even with everything set to allow all, I'm still getting this as something blocked...
