Recently I added a network drive to my system (Maxtor Shared Storage II 1TB) and was hoping to control it and my two Squeezeboxes through slimserver running on a wireless laptop, so that I didn't need to turn on my desktop PC. (I've already been using the Squeezeboxes with slimserver running on my desktop PC for about six months.)
Unfortunately, I quickly discovered that this configuration causes frequent dropouts in the music. When I go back to running slimserver on my desktop PC or connect the laptop to the network with an Ethernet cable, I don't have any more problems, but that kind of defeats the purpose of having a wireless laptop. I read in one of the setup FAQs that this network configuration, having slimserver running wirelessly, could cause problems, but was wondering if anyone had a possible fix I could try. By the way, my laptop is running Windows Vista home premium 32 with a slimserver 6.5.2 build from a couple of days ago. I had a few problems installing slimserver on Vista, but, thanks to the information on this forum, it now seems to be working normally. -- corbey ------------------------------------------------------------------------ corbey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11286 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34748 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
