Thanks for your patience, I assure you we are taking this problem very seriously and working to resolve it as soon as possible. So far I think we have isolated two or three networking problems, captured in the following bug reports:
Bug 7376: SBC is sometimes unresponsive Bug 7153: Poor connectivity with ZyXEL routers Bug 7489: SBC fails to require wlan after going out of range I think most of you are probably experiencing the problems in Bug 7376. This appears to be related to running SqueezeCenter on Windows. It has been very difficult to resolve this bug as we have been unable to recreate the problem here, but with help from the community (thanks Steinar!) a fix will be available in tomorrows SqueezeCenter nightly 7.0.1 build. I'll post an update when that build is available to try. It appears that some routers are not working well with the SBC. So far ZyXEL routers have been confirmed to have problems by our QA team. I suspect the problem is related to the wlan power management, and investigations are continuing. As a work around we recommend you try a different router, or use the Controller and Receiver in bridged mode as described by Jim. Bug 7489 is an intermittent problem where the SBC fails to reconnect to SqueezeCenter when it moves out of the wlan range. The work around is to reboot your SBC (you should not need to do a factory reset). I will be investigating this in more detail from tomorrow. These problems are not easy to recreate and resolve, so it will be a while before fixes are available for all these bugs. However it does help a lot to receive reports of these problems, with as much information about your system and symptoms as possible.
