What router are you using? Indeed, since the SB2 and SB3 use identical radio modules and identical firmware, it's quite puzzling. Plus BOTH your SB3s can't connect, yet your SB2 does.
Routers definitely have something to do with it since my SMC 2804WBRP-G wouldn't work with my SB2 no way no how, yet a Linksys WRT54G worked first time, and even works with DD-WRT firmware. --- mcremer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > As a proud and happy owner of the wonderful > Squeezebox version 2, there > was no question that I definitely had to order the > new (and much better > looking) SB3 once it would have become available.
