Hi,

I have been searching on this forum for quite a while now for the
following:

Can I connect my SB3 with slimserver over internet? In other words:
outside of the local network?
I'm still in the process of getting slimserver to work on my NAS
(buffalo linkstation running Freelink firmware, which is a debian linux
distribution), which is in another network as my squeezebox.

Bringing the two devices together in the same network is not an option,
because of the limited uplink bandwidth of the network where the
squeezebox is (I am now able to stream my music to anywhere over the
internet, thanks to the firefly media server running on the NAS, and a
2mbps upload connection).

I don't fancy running slimserver inside the network where the SB3 is
either: I bought the NAS so that I don't have to keep a computer
running at all times.

I know that the responsiveness of the SB will suffer if it needs to
interface with a remote slimserver over a non-local connection, but
judging from the speed and reliability at which the SB3 plays internet
radio stations now, this won't be a problem.

I do have full control over the routers at both networks (one siemens
device and a linksys running DD-wrt) and the NAS.

Anyway: SB3 on one network and slimserver on the other - is this
possible? (also meaning that I want to control the music on the
SB3-side, without a computer)
