The Controller is connected to your wireless network in the same way,
regardless of the music source. The connection, assignment of IP
address, etc., all occur well before there's an attempt made to find a
music source.
If the Controller connects SN and configures the Receiver properly,
then the Controller is working. Connecting to SN means that your
network is configuring the Controller correctly, and is routing packets
to/from the internet to the Controller correctly. This is good.
Not finding a local SqueezeCenter can mean any of the following:
- You don't actually have SqueezeCenter 7.0.0 (or higher) running on
a computer on your network. Make sure SC is running and, if
possible, connect to it from a different computer on your network by
opening a web browser and entering
http://-IP_address_of_computer_running_SC-:9000. If the
SqueezeCenter interface opens up, then SC is running and available on
your network (at least to that computer). Double-check the version
number by checking the Status tab under Settings.
- One (or more!) software firewalls are blocking the routing of
packets to/from the Controller to the computer running SC. Try
disabling (as a test!) the firewall and see if you can connect. Be
sure to double-check that ALL firewalls are turned off (you might be
surprised how many people are running the built-in Windows Firewall
-and- a third-party firewall like Zone Alarm Pro, or Norton Internet
Security. If you are able to connect, then you'll need to open the
firewall for access (see the Squeezebox Duet Uder Guide for
instructions).
- The Controller is not on the same network segment as the computer
running SqueezeCenter. Check the IP address for the computer and
compare it to the IP address for the Controller. They should be very
similar (eg., 192.168.1.101 and 192.168.1.106). If they aren't
similar, they may not be on the same network segment which means
there may not be a route for the data to travel. If this is the
case, you'll need to post details about your network set up here
(what's connected to what, as in: switch connected to wireless
router, PC connected to switch with ethernet cable, Controller and
Receiver connected to wireless router). We can try to help you
figure out what's happening from that information.
In general, this is stuff our technical support team is really well
qualified to help you with... you really should consider contacting
them.
