generally agree, but I will say I set up a boom via WIFI for the 80+ year old mother of a friend and it has worked perfectly for over a year now. She uses it 10 hours a day. It is all connected to mysqueezebox.com and she only listens to internet radio from stations around the world. We setup the presets in advance. She pushes the preset, and it simply works. Admittedly, this is a simple use case.... another nontechy friend I suggested the RADIO and he uses it WIFI and mysb.com and only uses PANDORA. Again, for this simple use case it has been trouble free. -- garym Location 1: Vortexbox Appliance 6TB (1.10) > SbS 7.6.2 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) Location 2: Win7(64) laptop > SbS 7.6.2 > Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio and laptop) Retired: SB3, Duet Receiver Controlled at both locations with: iPhone (iPeng), iPad (iPengHD & SqueezePad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.6 on Win7(64) laptop Ripping (FLAC) - dbpoweramp, Additional Tagging - mp3tag ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91064 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
