ok, i got it to work. i write this next bit for people with similar situations to mine, and to remind myself should i later need it ;)
you don't need crossover cables and you wire the SBR directly to the router that the computer running the standalone windows net-udap is running, (which can be a PITA if the SBR is hard to get in and out of where the audio equipment is). i am assuming the computer also has to be wired to the router, but maybe not. heres the udap link: http://slim2lirc.myown.mailcan.com/udap_shell_1_0_0.exe make sure the SBR is blinking slow flashing red, and if it isn't, u can make it by holding in the front LED light/button on the SBR i think. this next part worked for me, but maybe b/c i had previously had this SBR working before: run the file above, and a udap cmd prompt should show. at the prompt, type: discover then type: conf 1 then it should give a prompt that IDs the SBR. i then put: list so i could see which correct settings the SBR already had, so i wouldn't have to set them again, and type all that stuff. (you can do "help" to see all the commands) the wireless here doesn't have security at the moment, so i couldn't use any of the exact examples here: https://projects.robinbowes.com/Net-UDAP/trac/wiki/SampleUsage but i just used the "Wireless, 64-bit WEP, DHCP" as my example to follow, and compared what it had wih what "list" showed me. basically all i'm sure i "set" was the ssid and the SBS IP. i think the other command[s] i set may already have been previously set properly, and so were redundant. once you have the settings "set" the way you want them, you can "list" again to check the settings, and then you need to: save_data and then: reset it took a while, like a couple of minutes or so, but the quick flashing white went solid, and i unattached the ethernet cable, and amazingly the SBS could again see and play to the SBR. *many thanks to peter and robin* for empowering people to get past logitech's shortcomings. -- MrSinatra www.lion-radio.org using: sb2 & sbc (my home) / sbrec & ipeng (parents' home) - sbs 7.5.4b - win xp pro sp3 ie8 - p4(ht) 3.2ghz, 2gig ram - 1tb wd usb2 raid1 - d-link dir-655 - 48k+ mp3 ::VOTE FOR 'BUG 15604' (http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15604)!!!:: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85793 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
