I went into the windows firewall settings, "allow a program or feature through windows firewall" and it lists all the programs allowed. I unticked "Logitech Media Server" and "Squeezebox Server" then tried to make new entries, but neither are in the list in the sub box to create a new entry,as you just need to click on the program you want to make a new entry for. While there, I opened and closed my firewall while the squeezebox was on and my hifi running. It confirms definitely that this is what is stopping it working, the situation being that if I want to use my squeezebox to listen to the hifi I have to turn off my windows firewall. Does this mean I will have to uninstall my LMS and install it again, for the firewall to let it through ? And if this is the case, it would mean it would be without the recent update....but at the moment I couldn't care less about that I wish I had never updated it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NE5's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66846 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109713 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
