This is almost certainly a wireless networking problem (as you probably already suspect). But you can eliminate all other variables by wiring the SB3 to the router for a spell and seeing if you can reproduce the problem. I imagnine the problem will go away immediately, then you can proceed troubleshooting the wireless network in full confidence that it's the culprit. -- azinck3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ azinck3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3967 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29474 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
