Just tried moving the SB3 into another room and when encryption was
disabled i was getting a constant connection with signal strength
between 55-60%  Worked flawlessly with both .mp3 stored on my hard
drive and streaming via AlienBBC.


Then i turned on MAC filtering (added the SB3 MAC address to the
trusted network and switched on access control via my router) and it
borked within 2 minutes, constantly losing connection (screen went
blank) and then either comes back and starts the tune again or merely
stalls altogether.


Totally bizarre but it seems ANY type of encryption/ filtering is
interferring with the signal/ connection.

I'd like to try a static IP but in all honesty it seems a little beyond
me and the fact that it finds an IP address automatically leads me to
believe this may not solve anything??!?

There is clearly something that it doesn't like and the fact that i
have found a setting which appears to work (albeit with WPA/WEP/MAC
filtering disabled)i am now determined to make it work, just hopefully
in a way that doesn't leave my wireless conection open for anybody to
use.
