Got my SB3 a few weeks ago, best money I have spent in a long time, however I do have one annoying problem, I just can't get the SB3 to work with wireless.
My first installation attempt was wireless slimserver and wireless SB3. The SB3 menu was horrible to use scroll 3 items then freeze for 10 seconds then often blank screen and trying to connect to slimserver, music would play for a reasonable amount of time and then stop working when I tried to scroll through SB3 menu's. So I thought ok maybe 2 wireless jumps is the problem, so I hard wired my slimserver to my vigor 2800 wireless router. I had exactly the same problems with the SB3. I ran some ping tests from my pc to the SB3 and it seemed that every 5-10 seconds the SB3 was unreachable for a few seconds. So next I try hard wired slimserver and hardwired SB3..... problem fixed all works correctly so now I have a patch lead running around my room from router to SB3, not exactly what I had in mind. My current setup is wireless slimserver and hardwired SB3 so I know it isn't my router that is causing a problem with the slim communication as my slimserver is wireless. Slimserver version is 6.5.2 and SB3 firmare is 81, i do not use encryption on my wireless network and I have tried the SB3 wireless with mac filtering off with no difference also I have tried switching off all wireless turbo options. The SB3 is only located <10 meters from the wireless access point. I really want to get another SB3 for another room in the house and I really can't hard wire that one :( Any suggestions on what is going on here?
