If there is doubt about whether the packets from the Squeezebox reach
and are processed by Slimserver - then you can do

1. run Ethereal all the time logging to a ring of files so that you
will always have a log of what's has been happening on the network on
the previous hours.  When the problem shows - stop ethereal and see if
Squeezebox packets are being logged and received by server.

2. Enable d_proto on slimserver - this will indicate if packets
(including the very first discovery packets) are being received  and
processed by Slimserver.  

If packets are not being logged by Ethereal - check wifi and network
hardware (NICs, Routers and cables). 

If packets are logged by Ethereal and not being processed by Slimserver
then I'd investigate "security" s/w - firewall, anti spyware, IM
protection etc.

If Packets are being processed by Slimservers but replies not seen by
Squeezebox  - check security s/w.
