Scott B Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I'm having extremely slow mouse and keyboard response on macOS Sierra v10.12.5 using Windows 7 desktop as server. I'm connected via cat 5 through LAN. This is making my MacBook client unusable when connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Suarez Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Hi @Scott B. Please provide more details about your machines (OS, 32/64 bit, Synergy version installed, connected to the network via Ethernet or Wi-Fi, specify which one is the server).

Scott B Posted June 23, 2017 Author Share Posted June 23, 2017 SERVER - Windows 7 v10.12.5 64bit OS - running V1.8.8-stable-25a8cb2 Synergy CLIENT - macOS Sierra - running v1.8.8-stable-25a8cb2 Synergy both connected via Ethernet to same LAN segment. I tested and changed out Ethernet cables to rule out connectivity issues. I also have an issue with the "Server IP" configured on the client Synergy settings not saving after I reboot the Mac.

Paul Suarez Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Have you tried using v1.9 from Download Synergy 1.9-rc3 (Fixes the macOS WiFi lag bug) forums thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott B Posted June 23, 2017 Author Share Posted June 23, 2017 I just did and now it starts up and crashes right away each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Suarez Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Can you switch back to v1.8.8 then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott B Posted June 23, 2017 Author Share Posted June 23, 2017 I just did. I will have to test on Monday when I'm back at my office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Suarez Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Your client machine shows an unknown IP address. Are you using VPN or a third party firewall on that machine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott B Posted July 5, 2017 Author Share Posted July 5, 2017 I'm not sure what you're saying? I input the server's IP address (10.217.159.65) manually into that field. Each workstation is directly connected to the same LAN, no VPN or firewalls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Suarez Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 I see. Then please check on your client machine since it showing "Unknown" on the IP address. You can stop and close Synergy on your client machine and try to unplug and plugging back the Ethernet cable for that machine. After plugging it back in, re-launch Synergy and check if it gains a valid IP address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
