I have a dell laptop which I use as a music server & torrenting machine which came with Vista basic. My SB3 is connected wirelessly to the router as is the laptop. Signal on both is about 80%. I use the latest release version of v7 squeezecenter.
On vista, my SB worked fine, I had no connectivity issues & everything was fine except the laptop ran dog slow when I had to use it, even if I wasn't streaming audio. So I had the idea to format & install XP home, which I did. The laptop runs much better now, I setup the laptop with the same IP as before & restarted my router & the SB3 & SC7 found each other ok & I could stream audio. But the SB3 & SC7 lose each other after 20 mins or so & I have to restart the router for them to work again, which they do, for another 20 mins etc etc. As I said, my network is setup exactly as it was before becuase I took screen dumps of my network settings. During all of this utorrent on the laptop is happily downloading. I don't think utorrent is stealing all the bandwidth because it was absolutely fine for months until I installed XP. Also, I was limiting my bandwidth to 150kbs/60kbs in utorrent at the time & I have successfully downloaded ay 17mb/s before & had SC7 streaming audio ok. All my audio is flac if that matters. The network is 802.11g Finally in v6.5.4 of slimserver there was a way of specifying how may "chunks" of data to cache (I think thats what it was). The default was 5 & I set it to 20. I cannot find this option in SC7. Any ideas would be gratefully received. -- Rockyjocky ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rockyjocky's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14676 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=46068 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
