There's another important issue here. It is unwise to let both the SB
and the PC that runs slimserver connect to the AP wirelessly. The server
should be connected (optionally by a switch) to the wired port of the
access point. If both the server and the client connect wirelessly, the
traffic over the wireless link is effectively doubled, which, will also
double your chances or trouble.

I have both a wireless and a wired network. The wired network contains
my server and desktop machines, while the wireless network contains my
laptops and most of my SB's. The AP bridges both networks. My DSL router
is seperate, but only because that allows me to place the AP in a better
central location in the house.

Peter
