Sometimes I'm lucky and I get the mentioned `third' option (connect to squeezenetworks) but often I simply don't have time to wait. Imagine the following weird situation: An internet radio station plays for hours. Then you want to change the station and you see `set up networking' and `current settings' while the music is still running! > Again, I don't see anything like this behaviour - and I have an SB1, SB2 > and SB3 on my network.

I dont use a SlimServer -- I just connect to SqueezeNetworks. And I would really like to blame my equipment but since the radio-player on my Laptop never had any problems this seems very unlikely to me. > Appreciate your frustration and the need to vent, but it really doesn't > sound to me like the specific problems you mention are design issues. > Where I do agree with you is that the wireless implementation for the > SB isn't always as reliable as (say) a laptop, but when you look at > what the SB has to do in terms of streaming audio it's not so > surprising... I don't think that the hardware differs a lot. Maybe the SB even has a more modern Wireless-Chipset than my Laptop. That's why I assume that the developers simply adopted the same way to deal with network problems from the wired part and thats really a bad assumption. -- finger ------------------------------------------------------------------------ finger's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39421 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
