I share the original poster's problems with rebuffering and also believe it to
be a software issue with recent versions of Squeezebox Server. I have been
running the same set up flawlessly for over two years, without ever having any
problems with skipping or rebuffering. Now, however, after having recently
upgraded Squeezebox Server I am having constant problems with music
rebuffering. Nothing else in my setup has changed at all, only the upgrade of
Squeezebox Server.
I've only noticed this problem with music from my local collection (mixture of
FLAC and Ogg Vorbis), and to my recollection the rebuffering has not been an
issue with Internet streams.
