Just bought a Squeezebox Radio unit for the first time, so far love it!
:)

I have had no issues and everything seems to be working correctly, but
I do have one question about bandwidth usage when you are listening to
a stream from a radio station.

When I am actively listening to a station, I can see the network
traffic led lights blinking rapidly on my router and Cable Modem,
before listening to any station it will blink every 1 or 2 secs, which
I assume is a heartbeat check to the Mysqueezebox.com server.

Now here is the oddity. If I pause or hit the power button to go into
standby, the radio station sound goes, but looking at the router, it
still is blinking like it is actively steaming that station to the
Radio unit. Only if I hold down the power button to turn off the unit
fully, then turn it back on does the network traffic stop.

Is there any way to actively stop the streaming from a station after
you select it? I do have a bandwidth cap from my provider and do not
want to have the unit streaming 24/7 even if I am not listening to it.


My Current setup is Squeezebox Radio unit connected through a wired
connection, using the MySqueezebox.com server and not LMS.
