Hi all,
I have the "original" SlimDevice, and now a wpa network. Does someone know how I can connect my Slim to the network? I can connect it if I'm on wep, but not if I'm using wpa. I really wouldn't want to go back to wep just for the sake of one device.
Any ideas, perhaps a firmware upgrade?
Nothing on the site on this, which is a real turn-off.  SlimDevice should support the products it sells.

First, you don't have the "original" slim device (SliMP3) -- that wasn't a wireless device at all.  What you have, I suspect, is a SqueezeBox (1).  Your device was never advertised as supporting WPA so I'm not sure why you think you have suffered an injustice.  Here's a fairly definitive response from Dean from SlimDevices on this issue:

My advice to you is to pick up a wireless bridge device if you absolutely must support WPA on your current hardware or simply unload your SB1 on eBay and upgrade to a SB2 or now an SB3 (whichever form factor you like better).  By upgrading you would also get 802.11g support...
