I am still having problems trying to connect my squeezebox to my
wireless network. Let me explain what I have done so far.

I have my squeezebox (firmware v35, slimserver 6.2.2) wired into my
ADSL gateway, and it can then communicate to my wireless PC through the
gateway. This works great.

However, trying to connect the squeezebox wirelessly is proving
troublesome, as the connect option times out after 30 seconds, failing
to connect. I have removed all wireless encryption, and have located
the squeezebox, the ADSL gateway, and my computer all next to each
other, so there can be no signal problems. I have totally uninstalled
norton anti-virus, disabled the Windows XP firewall, and opened the 3
required ports on my ADSL gateway. I have turned DHCP off and manually
configured my USB wireless adapter and squeezebox. I know the wireless
adapter and gateway connect when setup manually, as my PC can still
access my internet conenction from the ADSL gateway. When I do a
factory default reset on the squeezebox, and then look in the settings,
under wireless network, it lists signal strength as 0%, but then once I
have entered all the wireless setup options and it times out, I go back
into the signal strength and it is between 95%-100%, so am I correct in
assuming that the squeezebox is actually detecting my wireless
network?

Here are the settings I am using

USB Wireless adapter on my PC
IP address 10.0.0.4
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Default gateway 10.0.0.2
DNS server 10.0.0.2

Squeezebox
IP address 10.0.0.5
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Gateway 10.0.0.2
DNS server 10.0.0.2
SlimServer 10.0.0.4
Bridge (wireless to ethernet) No
MAC address listed is the same as that printed on the bottom of the
device

ADSL gateway
IP addresses range from 10.0.0.4 to 10.0.0.24
The 3 requested ports are opened for the IP address 10.0.0.5

Any suggestions please?
