The freezing on the menus is normally associated with CPU time on the server, so when it happens again, see if the system running Slimserver is performing any other operations that could be bottlenecking the smooth operation of Slimserver. Try placing the access point somewhere fairly high and central within your installation and if it has adjustable antennae, try angling them back slightly (I've increased overall wireless strengths to all of my wireless clients doing this). -m -- greedy_grendel ------------------------------------------------------------------------ greedy_grendel's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=452 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18199 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
