I guess you are right. The only practical solution is that I will do as you suggest and move it somewhere and use headphones with it. It's not an ideal location to sit around and listen to it and the problem is sufficiently intermittent that it will need a reasonable stretch of use for me to be sure it is OK. If I can determine that it is a wifi issue, I hope it is a signal problem rather than a hardware problem that has developed with the SB3. It's actually quite useful having that box on wifi as I use it as a wireless bridge to an NSLU2 I have connected to my PVR. -- Zoltan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Zoltan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9998 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84712 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
