Common Error Codes

Error code 1: Network error

A network error indicates that there may be an internet/network connection issue or your firewall/security settings are blocking the app from communicating with the Vibe.fyi server.

To fix this error, please check the following:

  1. Is your device connected to a fixed or wifi network? If not:
    1. Fixed/Wired (recommended): Plug the ethernet cable into the LAN port (at the rear of your LG display) and wait for the connection to be established
    2. Wireless*
      1. LG Digital Signage devices: Use the LG remote to open the LG System Settings and locate the Network settings.  Follow the prompts to select your network and enter your password. When the LG display is connected to the wireless network, please recheck the logs (BLUE button on remote).
      2. Windows Desktop Player App: Check the network settings on your device.
  1. Are your firewall/security settings preventing the app from communicating?
    Contact your Vibe support team to request the IP addresses required for your IT team to setup whitelisting.
Info
*If using a wireless connection with a browser prompt (e.g. connection requires you to enter information before a connection is established), please ask your IT team to bypass the prompt.
