It goes to the settings screen, if I am recalling correctly, when it gives up, I guess so you can see the problem and do something. Thinking about this more, perhaps I should just let it keep trying to connect intermittently indefinitely, since that is apparently what the players do. When I first coded this, there were cases where in certain circumstances the attempt to connect could interrupt (block) the GUI momentarily. But I have long since addressed that by doing that work in a background thread. So It might be OK, just to retry indefinitely. As for WOL, SLX will only send WOL if you enable that setting in SLX, so if you don't want it, then you can not enable it.
