How do you setup your router's firewall for Squeezebox internet radio
access?

My firewall is running a Deny-all strategy. I already have opened ports
3483 and 9000 for outgoing connections. But internet radio station seem
to use all kinds of ports. In my firewall's log files, I found
references to port numbers from as low as 824 up to 31115. Not opening
those station-specific ports results in "Connect timed out: Transport
endpoint is not connected." messages.

Somewhat reluctantly, I guess I could open that whole port range for
connections originating at IP addresses assigned to my Squeezebox
hardware in the local network. But I definitely would not want to open
the same port range for my desktop running SqueezeSlave.

So, how should I configure my router's firewall?

Thanks, Malte
