I'm experimenting with Linux. I say "experimenting" because I can barely get anything to work so I'm probably going to move on to something else.
Anyway I've got it set up behind my SB3 in wireless bridge mode. It works just fine for Internet access - I downloaded the 160 Ubuntu updates twice without issue, and web browser access is snappy. However internal LAN access is slow as molasses. I can't reliably get samba file sharing working, and the web pages for internal servers, SlimServer and my router, load one or two images after a minute or so, then just sit there doing nothing. I've added the Linux PC's IP address to SlimServer's allowed addresses and started and stopped SlimServer to no avail. But I'm wondering - how does the router see the device attached to the SB-acting-as-wireless-bridge? Does it see its MAC address or that of the SB3? Should I add the Linux PC's MAC address to the list of allowed MAC addresses? (That would involve trying to find a MAC address under Linux which would take me all night at the rate I'm going, but still.) I've set my router to limit wireless clients - should I add one more or does all the traffic "seem" to originate from the SB3? Thanks. -- Mark Lanctot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26183 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
