Hello, I've recently encountered a technical issue with my SB3, and I'm
hoping someone here might have some insight.  I've been using my SB3
(with SS 6.2) to stream music wirelessly, but I also have it connected
to my xbox360 via crossover cable so that it can function as a bridge. 
It has worked flawlessly in this configuration for almost 1 year. 
Recently though, when I boot up the xbox, it fails to connect to the
internet and says that the network adapter is disconnected.  I have
verified that the crossover cable and the ethernet port on the back of
the xbox are still functioning; also, the SB3 is still able to stream
music wirelessly.  I've also tried to use the SB3 as a bridge for my
laptop with no success.  I tried doing a factory reset on the SB3, but
that didn't seem to help; furthermore, following the reset I'm no
longer presented with the menu option to turn on bridging (even though
the crossover cable is attached).  Additionally if I connect the SB3
directly to the router and attempt to use it in wired mode, it fails to
detect that an ethernet cable is attached.  Last night I upgraded SS to
6.3 to force an update of the firmware on the SB3 to see if that would
again allow it to "see" its ethernet port, but it made no difference. 
Sorry for the long-winded description, but I'd hate to be without my
SB3 if I have to send it in for service; hopefully you all can suggest
something that I have overlooked.  I'm using a linksys router (wrt54)
in g-band with a combination of wireless and ethernet devices, and it
seems to be working fine.  All of the cables (both crossover and
regular patch) that I've used for trying different configurations have
been verified to work.  Both the xbox360 and the SB3 (with the
exception of its ethernet port) are working normally.  As of last
night, I'm running the most recent version of SS (6.3).
