OK, the latest is that I appear to have got it working. I installed 6.5.0 on my laptop (there was no way I was messing with my beautifully tweaked and setup 6.5.2 on my main PC) and directed my SB3 towards that.
It connected fine, downgraded to FW64 and rebooted. However - it lost all its wireless settings on reboot (a shock to me) so I had to input everything again - which would have been easy if I could remember my wireless password). So, I inserted a new password into my Access Point (plus all my other wireless equipment) and the SB3 duly connected to SS v6.5.0 on the laptop. When I then stopped slimserver, the 'waking slimserver' message was back (and not just on a reboot like before). I then pointed my SB3 back towards my main PC with 6.5.2 on it and after updating to FW80 (which I've been running for a few days now) it connected easily. Guess what... 'Waking Slimserver' seems to have been restored! :) So, what could have caused this? Could it have been my upgrade from 6.5.1 to a very particular version of 6.5.2 (with the added bonus of FW76) which only a few of us seem to have done? I can't get my head around how taking a particular upgrade path can influence this seeing as others on FW76/80 have not had the problem and that SS is not run on the squeezebox but on a remote computer. Anyway, I appear to have it working. I'd recommend the technique to others and thanks to those who suggested it! Daz PS The only thing that nearly caught me out in all of this was the fact that 'l' and 'I' look identical on the squeezebox when inputting wireless passwords just as they do in the arial font in which I'd printed it out as a reminder!!! -- dazbarber ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dazbarber's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8088 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33867 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
