Thanks to all;
Regarding tablet or phone, I realize no display is needed, I use squeeze control, but find I still like the display, rather than pulling something out of my pocket, or if someone other than myself wants to operate it. Actually, the radio is a nice front end, and they are going for about $50 on the bay. I built a pi for another friend (server with usb hdd for library), and a radio as the player. Its a good non techie ui, with the buttons and volume dial, presets, and display. With the bonus of portability with a battery. I only mentioned the sound quality maybe not being the same as say the receiver/touch is I have played them side by side, and it seems at least the gain is different. Maybe the radio solution is best in the end, unless I run across another touch on ebay. Regarding net:UDAP, I am an engineer, and can get around home network stuff, but other than that, IT things and the latest software development environments/languages can be a bit of a foreign language to me. I stopped actively coding at C, before it got the "++", and on unix, before there was linux :) I guess I am still stuck on this, once I run this test, what do I do with the results? Does it lead to a solution, or rather just a validation that the receiver can hang up? My friend constantly complains that his internet has problems, and feels the ISP is the issue, but I think there are simple things that can be worked on to improve everything. I think that's where I need to focus my efforst to help him. Things that allot of you have been kind enough to suggest. Thanks again for the help.
