If you're using DHCP it should be set automatically to something like 192.168.1.x. If you're not you have to set it manually, but it has to be unique - you can't set it to an address already used by the server.

That usually means it's not connecting to the network properly (WEP key error I would guess). The fact that it works wired would back that up. > > I'm pretty sure I have DHCP (how do you know?) > ipconfig /all would say "DHCP enabled: yes" on Windows. > > If I do set those, they should both be the same at 192.168.1.1 correct? > (that's what ipconfig says for default gateway, IP4 says 192.168.1.4). > Then that sounds right. > > So if I set lan_ip_mode to 0 then I use those values and if I don't > then those values can be empty correct? > Yes but you can't copy the IP, it has to be unique (but of the form 192.186.1.x). If you're using DHCP on the network but you want to set one manually it has to be outside the DHCP range to avoid collisions. To keep it simple, use static everywhere or DHCP everywhere. > > You also said I lan_network_address to the same as > squeezecenter_address at 192.168.1.4 but I set lan_network_address to > 0.0.0.0? > I was just reading what you said in the last line of your post. > > What should I be setting squeezecenter address to? > The server's IP. > > Am I supposed to be using that 2nd IP address for anything? > No Recommendation - disable WEP (it doesn't do any good anyway) and try the setup without any network security. That will prove the basics are working, then enable WPA and use that. I've often seen issues with WEP key errors where the device think's it's connected but it isn't (which would explain the blue light). -- radish 'HELP ME RAISE MONEY FOR CHILDREN'S CANCER RESEARCH!'
