Interesting. I switched to 11, we'll see if it makes a difference, thanks!.

I think there's definitely some nonsense with the old chips and new wifi tech, and I think the best solution is to get some wifi to ethernet bridges and just do it. I have a lot of squeezeboxes so I want to source cheap bridges.. but not so cheap that they make the problem worse! 1 Touch 4 Receivers 3 Controllers 3 Radios (I think I have a problem) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ FredFredrickson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16584 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116136 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
