Is there any reason why you're running two SlimServers?  Most likely
the reason your wireless one can't see it is because it's in
communication with your wired one.  The Squeezebox can only be
connected to one SlimServer at a time.  If you want to switch, switch
from the Squeezebox by going back to network setup and finding the
different music source.

This is fairly inconvenient to switch and there's usually no reason to
run two SlimServers.  Best stick with one.

I believe you need "UNC" network paths, i.e. \\server name\folder
