Felix/PBE,

Very similar issue here (beta SBC connects fine and will see music
source, but pre-production SBC unit won't). Didn't have a huge amount
of time to debug last night, so let me set out where I got to.  

XP Pro
12th Feb 7.0 nightly
ESET Security
Netgear Router DG834n using WPA-PSK security (alphanumeric)
SBC Firmware (1917, I think)

The pre-production SBC will connect intermittently to my wireless
network because I've managed to set up my SBR (White light on front and
visible on the web interface).  However, to rule out a problem with
entering the password, I switched off encryption on my wireless
network.  Made no change to the SBC's ability to connect and/or see the
music server.

Also, I've noticed that my SBC appears to keep losing its connection to
my wireless network, even when it appears to be connected.  If I go into
the details of the connection on the SBC screen, it will show as
connected to my network 107, but sometimes the IP address will be
192.168.0.10 and sometimes it will be a loopback "not really connected"
IP address. 

There is nothing in my router logs to show the router is rejecting a
request for a connection and I've tried with ESET both on, off and
uninstalled to rule that out.

I've tried a factory reset, but am still struggling to get the SBR to
use a static IP.  I have set my router to allocate the SBR an address
outside of my DCHP range (as I have for the media server and all three
SBs), but the SBC still appears to pull down an IP address within the
DCHP range of 192.168.0.10.

Will manually update the firmware and turn on logging tonight, but hope
this helps in the meantime.  If anyone knows how to assign the SBC a
static address from the Controller itself, could they talk me through
it?  I must be missing something in the options on setup.
