Thanks for the suggestions guys, and quick responses too. This product would definitely be stuffed without such an active and helpful user community - you should all get paid for helping Slim customers!!!
Think you were on the right track - the good news is that I have just managed to get it up and running. The solution (at the moment) was to assign the SB3 a static IP. I used 192.168.2.24 (the SoftSqueeze on my laptop which was working was showing in the SlimServer as 192.168.2.23). After doing this, I was able to ping the SB3 from the command prompt. And lo and behold, this has made it work. It even picked up the SlimServer on my desktop PC automatically. The IP addresses that the SB3 was previously picking up automatically before all started 169.254. I guess these are out of my DHCP pool range (is that right? how do I check my DHCP pool range?). Any idea why this would be? First thing the SB did was to upgrade firmware. Maybe I can try going back to dyanamic IP and it will work now? Am still quite confused and would like to understand all this properly!!! Oh, and apologies for the multiple posting very quickly, but as you can imagine have been very keen to get my new toy working ;-) -- mwoodroof ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mwoodroof's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4190 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21588 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
