I have an original slimp3 on firmware version 2.2. Over the past couple weeks I've been having issues with it and decided to update the firmware to the latest (2.3).
When I got the player in the update firmware mode (mac addr displaying), and started the update software, it errored out saying that it couldn't connect to the player. I am able to set up the player just fine, but when I attempt to actually play a song, it begins to flash 2 messages over and over (Network appears to be disconnected AND The network is now connected). Eventually I have to unplug/replug. Once it is reset, I'm able to navigate through all menu items, and even scroll through my music library... all is fine until I try to play a song. I believe that I'm unable to upgrade the firmware version because of this issue. I have a Squeezebox, which runs wirelessly without issue. My slimserver software is v 6.5.1 I've tried 2 different cat5 cables and 2 different hubs/switches. The problem does not go awasy. I opened the case to see if the NIC connection was loose, and it does not appear to be. I did have to re-solder the power connection back to the board... that thing sticks like mad when pulling the power cord out so I think the solder-joints became loose over time. I've looked through the forums, but haven't seen anyone with a similar issue. Any help is appreciated. thanks, elm -- elmtree ------------------------------------------------------------------------ elmtree's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=281 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33100 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
