Yes, that's exactly it. RadioTime (who provides that whole menu thing) uses some sort of GeoIP service which maps IP numbers into locations. These can be pretty accurate, but they can also be completely nuts. My parents routinely move from Fremont to Hollywood, even though they actually live in neither location.... google's GeoIP and Comcast's DHCP assignments just make them virtually move. The solution is to create a radio time account at http://www.radiotime.com/ and the attach your MySB account to that at MySqueezebox.com. This will tell their servers to NOT use GeoIP guesses to locate you but just use the provided location. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75429 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
