I also have a UR816C and can not get the remote bridge to connect. Running Windows 10. I formerly had UR44C running on a mac and had no issues with the remote bridge. Unsure if this is a Windows problem or a UR816C problem. Hopefully Steinberg can fix this! I’d love to have the drummer use an iPad and set his own headphone mix using DSPmixFX.
Edit: Turns out that after quitting / restarting the remote bridge, my iPhone connected to the UR816C. Perhaps there is an issue where upon a computer sleep/wake cycle, the network connection is somehow disrupted, but I was able to connect. It sounds silly, but quit and restart the remote bridge and see if that works.
Updated solution: I was still having intermittent success at connecting my iPad to my PC and I changed the following setting and immediately stopped having connectivity issues.
In the taskbar, right click on the Remote Bridge icon and click ‘setup’.
By default, there will likely 3 boxes checked: vEthernet (wifi); vEthernet (Ethernet) & Wifi.
I unchecked both vEthernet protocols. The very same instant, my iPad connected. Bonus, I have wifi repeaters in my house to get better coverege and I no longer need to be connected to the same exact repeater. I can have my pc connected to the repeater, and my iPad connected to the main router and Remote Bridge connects either way. Hope this solution works for you!
Hey guys just using microsoft defender firewall on my pc laptop and not need to connect to an Ethernet cable and I just allow in firewall settings for this remote bridge app in program files/ Steinberg for both public and private network… it instantly working. Good Luck.
