Hello, I'm seeing strange things since I've changed my wireless router. I've recently bought a Linksys WRT54GS to replace my Trust Speedshare Turbo Pro (which had poor performance and configurability for broadband access). My Squeezebox is a wired one, plugged to an Asus WL-330G in adaptor mode. I hadn't bought the Squeezebox wireless because I wanted 802.11g and WAP on my network.
Anyway, with my previous router the playback of flac files was fine, but tonight I've tried it with the Linksys, and the result is : - some files plays, but with micro-dropouts - some files don't event output anything, although the meta-informations (title, album, artist...) are displayed correctly on the Squeezebox's screen When I take a look at the traffic on my server (a Gentoo Linux) with jnettop, I see very few bytes transmitted during the playing of the second type of file (around 200 Bps ~ 1600 bps ~ 1,6 kbps), and after 10-20 seconds there's even nothing transmitted on the port 9000. The first type seems to transmit a full stream (one typical output is around 180 kBps ~ 1440 kbps). I don't understand why there's no output from files which were playing correctly before. I've tried to plug the Squeezebox with a RJ45 cable, the problem disappeared instantly. So I'm looking for information from other owners of WRT54G or WRT54GS routers : have you already seen this kind of problem ? What did you do to solve it ? What could I try, knowing that I've already done the following with no success : - change channel - use 802.11b - update to latest firmware (v3.37.6 from Linksys, I've also tried HyperWRT) My main PC seems to be fine, although I hadn't tried to stream to it (copying of files over NFS goes at speed between 1 and 2 MBps, which should translate to something between 8 and 16 Mbps). Thanks in advance for the suggestions, Florent _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
