First off if you had used a respectable retailer or bought directly from Logitech, you would have had the 30 day trail period which is worth way more then the few dollars you saved on EBAY! The reason for trying Ethernet is to split the problem in half to find out if it is a WLAN problem or not. If it doesn't work with Ethernet, then it is a firewall, IP conflict, or other issue and will never work wireless until those issues are adjusted. If you are not going to follow and work with Tech Support, I don't think you should complain when you can't get the product to connect to YOUR network. Trust me, if my sister can setup a DUET, anybody can. There are over a hundred things specific to your PC and wireless network that are different from everybody elses. All it takes is one incorrect network, firewall, software, IP, or config setting to stop the router from talking to the DUET. Also did it ever occur to you to ask for help from the Forum Members, Read the Wiki, or admit it might be YOUR network, guess not as you would rather give up and complain because of a network conflict that Logitech has no control over. This has almost nothing to do with the product and almost everything to do with the personal choices you have made. -- iPhone *iPhone* 'Last.FM' (http://www.last.fm/user/mephone) Media Room: Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, Vandersteen Quatro, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1 Living Room: Duet, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Kitchen: Squeezebox BOOM Bedroom: SB3, GFR-700HD, Thiel 2.3, Second Boom Home Office: SB3, NAD C370, two VSM-1 Home Gym: SB3, Parasound Vamp v.3, Thiel PowerPoint 1.2 Mobile: SB3, Audioengine A5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57818 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
