Synergy keeps disconnect from client side, in less than 5 seconds

[mohalfares]

Hi,

I was able to connect both Windows 7 and Mac Snow Leopard using SynergyKM. The problem is that I always see this error in SynergyKM: Warning: Could not map hotkey id=ef14 mask=0000

Eventhough, they get connected, but in less than 5 seconds, I get this error from SynergyKM: NOTE: Client "client name" is dead

LOG FILE from SynergyKM:

I forgot to say that both Windows 7 and Mac Snow Leopard are connected to one wireless network / linksys router

Router IP: 192.168.1.1
Mac Snow Leopard Airport IP: 192.168.1.102
Windows 7 IP: 192.168.1.105

And the error appears even if I disable Windows Firewall

Oh, I should also say that I've two inputs languages on Mac Snow Leopard, AR + EN, and even when I disabled AR, the problem still exist

I even changed the router, assuming it's causing the problem, but still, the problem exist.

I just used Remote Desktop Manager for mac

till I figure out what is wrong with Synergy

Same Issue - Dead Client.

I have just started to have the same issue aswell. I am assuming it is either due to an update to OS X or Windows... Did you get any further information ?
