I've been a happy Slim user (and forum lurker) for almost 3 years, but have recently encountered a problem that I don't recall seeing discussed directly.
My wired network consists of 2 SB3s and one SB1. Everything worked quite well until I made two changes to my setup. First, I replaced my desktop computer and the new machine came with Vista Basic. I went through the usual teething troubles, but got everything working again (now running Slimserver 6.5.4). Then, I accepted Verizon's offer to upgrade from DSL to Fiber-Optic (FIOS). This entailed replacing my Lynksys router with a Verizon-supplied Actiontec MI424=WR router w/ 4 ports, to which I added a 8-port Zonet hub. Since then, I can use my SB3s but the SB1 will not find the server. It goes through the setup sequences, obtains a DCHP IP address, but I have to enter the server IP manually. It then gives me the "setup is complete" message, and goes black. When I push the right arrow, I get the error message: "Problem: Lost contact with the server. Check that the software is running." I've switched ports on the router and hub, swapped the SB3 and SB1s around, disabled the Vista firewall, but whatever I do, the SB3s work and the SB1 doesn't. So...I registered, delurked, and hereby turn to the community for any help or suggestions you can provide. Thanks. -- Rocking88s ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rocking88s's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13090 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38257 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
