OK, after much hair pulling and head bashing, I finally got this bad boy to work. Prior to this, my Slim 3 was getting a bulsh%t IP from my network (169.XXX.XXX.XXX) and wouldn't connect to my slimserver. Here's my setup:
Slim 3 Belkin FSD7633-4 router secured with WPA-PSK Win XP on a PIII 1) After screwing up every setting possible, start with fresh factory defaults by unplugging the Slim 3, holding down 'Add' while plugging the power back in. Make sure you also have slimserver running on your PC. 2) Setup your router with the bare necessities, none of that turbo and 54g protection crap. No NAT, port forwarding either. Most of what you need to check is in the Channel and SSID screen. Not sure if it matters, but my SSID is only one word. I switched it from two words before it all started working. Wireless mode is '54g-Auto'. Broadcast SSID is 'on'. 3) On the Slim 3, setup the network. Follow the instructions, using DHCP, BUT enter in the SSID manually. Not sure whether this matters but someone on these forums mentioned this works. Before I knew it, I was connected to the network and the slim server and was listening to Fela Kuti's Open & Close! Fitting.
