You don't need to open ports on your router for SlimServer.  Opening
ports is for -external- access, i.e. from the Internet.

If you can access SqueezeNetwork you have proper communication with
your wireless router - a proper encryption passphrase, proper DNS and
gateway.

If you can't access SlimServer it's probably a firewall issue.  Check
to see that the firewall on your SlimServer PC isn't blocking
SlimServer.  SlimServer needs ports TCP 3483, UDP 3483 and TCP 9000.

Once you make sure of this, press left on your Squeezebox remote for 5
seconds, go back to networking setup, skip over your encryption
passphrase, IP address setting, etc. by pressing FWD.  Stop when you
hit "Connecting to wireless network".  Once you're connected it should
ask you to specify a music source.  You should see the name or IP
address of your SlimServer PC.  Select it.

Edit: oh yeah - what radish said!  <blush>
