so, I'll set out what steps I take to try and fix this.. Just powered everything down, and started again, router first, giving it lots of time to reboot before turning on the PC & vortexbox.
This time, in case there's any conflict between different versions of LMS (now running 7.8 on both PC and vortexbox) I have stopped the PC version, and set it not to start on system start. As I get more and more music onto the vortexbox, I'm pointing all the players at that, and I can see the PC version being mainly switched off, and as a back up only. Do separate installations of LMS conflict with each other? Next I turned on one of the players - Bedroom SB3 - which is normally wifi connected. It wouldn't connect first time; did a factory reset; and it still won't connect. Interestingly (if I believe it) the router's web interface/control panel shows the player. It's correct mac address is showing, but it doesn't have an associated IP address. I had tried (last time I had issues) to use reserved IP addresses. This was working fine until today. It's a high-end, Netgear D6200 router, only about 5/6 weeks old. Also interesting is that all the other wifi devices in the house seem to be working and connecting fine...... If there's nothing more obvious, then could it be a problem with the router and the 'reserved' IP addresses under DCHP?? Going to try the Touch now. As always, extremely grateful for any thoughts or suggestions.
