I was trying to use adb over TCP/IP. I have followed these steps

adb tcpip 5555

adb connect 194.68.0.100:5555

I have used my device for 2 days and now I am unable to connect to my IP address like when I do

adb tcpip 5555

it doesn't respond anything. Anyone knows what could be the scenario.

This answer is late, but hopefully it helps others.

I have had the same experience of not being able to connect. Rebooting phone and PC does not help. I found the fix at: http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html at the bottom of the page.

Basically you follow these steps:

  1. Connect phone with usb cable to PC.
  2. Issue command: adb usb
  3. Issue command: adb tcpip 5555
  4. Issue command: adb connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your phone's IP address.
