Hi,

My network map:

Home network:

- 1st wire goes to my PC,
- 2nd wire goes to my WiFi access point

I have my PC (box) connected directly to my network by the wire. PC does not have WiFi.  
On the other hand I have my iPhone connected to the WiFi.

Is there a way to connect Companion App (iPhone) with Zwift App (PC) ?

Maybe some port forwarding made on my router ?

Are you having issues with this? I use a hardwired Apple TV for Zwift, and either iPhone or iPad to run Companion. No issues at all, since everything (hardwired ATV and wireless router) are on the same network.

Companion App is a TCP Server (port 3023). Ensure you can reach local network iPhone IP and port from PC.
