I've noticed that since a FW upgrade sometime last week r17xx, the
wireless reception on Jive has become flakier.

The signal strength in my kitchen hovers around 50% according to the
SB2 there, and Jive usually shows around 1 bar of signal strength when
sitting in it's cradle there. But I've noticed that after a while Jive
loses connection with the server and display the Blue Icon Of Death
(BIOD).

Also, once in this state (in general), Jive never attempts a
re-connection to the server. So a reboot is required.

I also get a BIOD if the server service is re-cycled to install a
nightly. 

I'm guessing that the server should maintain a timestamp for when the
process was started. Jive should pull down this timestamp. If a
Jive/Server disconnect occurs and Jive then attempts a reconnect, then
timestamps are compared.

If server timestamp > Jive timestamp, then Jive knows that it needs to
refresh all it's internal data structures from the server such as
player count/playlists etc as something about the server may have
changed.
