Phil: I'm not sure what to tell you. Definitely try swapping ports as Jim suggested.
Yes, firmware won't do much to the wired ports. I was going to suggest trying 3rd party firmware as both my router and my SB2 love DD-WRT, but I don't think there is third-party firmware for your model, nor will it really help your situation. Port forwarding is for traffic to and from the WAN (Internet) to a LAN (local) client. It doesn't have anything to do with your situation as both your SlimServer and your SB are sitting on your LAN. Do you have a spare network card you can swap out? I've had a couple of finnicky cards. --- Phil Leigh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Mark, > I've changed ALL the cables - no difference. > The router is a Linksys WAG54GS (brand new). > The SB connects fine and works (sort of) but the > buffer never fills up > so I get lots of dropouts. > This is very mystifying as the 10/100 switch ports > on the router > shouldn't go anywhere near the rest of the router... > > I've tried turning of the firewall, wireless and > disconnecting the ADSL > but that made no difference. > Do I need to do anyhting about port forwarding? > > > -- > Phil Leigh > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Phil Leigh's Profile: > http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 > View this thread: > http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18374 > > _______________________________________________ > Discuss mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss > __________________________________________________________ Find your next car at http://autos.yahoo.ca _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
