I have been frustrated by these symptoms and I am glad that I found this thread.
I have an incident open [Incident: 080916-002230] I initially tried the receiver and remote connected wireless to my main network via a Linksys WAP54G Wireless Access Point (Firmware 3.0.5) Australian Wireless Chan 11. The DHCP is handled by a Windows 2000 server with reservations set for both Receiver and Controller. I had just picked up a Dell Poweredge 2650 server for work so I installed Windows 2003 server, joined it to my AD domain and ran SqueezeCenter on that. In an attempt to increase reliability I ran a CAT5 to the Receiver from a Netgear 24 port switch. No much changed. Installed The SqueezeCentre App on a Windows XP workstation. No much changed, still unreliable controller connections. My Network's Gateway/Router is a Billion VGOM with Wireless (at the other end of the house from the Linksys WAP) I tried moving the Controller's connection to that connection (Australian Wireless Chan 1) but no real change. After creating the ticket with support and getting the typical instructions on how to reset the Duet system, I moved the the Squeezebox off of the main network completely and connected it to a small network that I use for some hosting and VoIP stuff. This consists of a Linksys WRT54GL running dd-wrt v24-sp1. With the exception of listening to internet radio stations, Frankly its worse! The remote still falls of the network giving me either Blue WiFi icon or after waking up gives the endless life-ring of death 'Connecting to Squeezebox' but now with the added frustration of songs stopping part-way through. I have submitted a log from squeezecentre (on the Poweredge) as a part of the incident ticket. It has some networking issues. Looking at this thread I am sure that with some effort it could be easily reproduced. If people are reporting that the problem might be worse with version 7.2. Where can we access older version? Like others have stated, all wireless networking in my environment with the exception of this latest addition, is very reliable. I don't believe updating firmware on routers is the right tree to bark up.
