during the this years wifi ch shuffle in the hood :). ( me and my 14 neighbours are in a longtime cold war*).
I have always used WPA2 + AES mode and it is working just fine and very stable I've used that with all my squeezeboxes over the years . But what is the WPA2 +TKIP/AES mode that my router and many others are offering ? And the more bewildering question exactly which variants of WPA2 is supported by radio ? I have memories off treads here where this was discussed, if I remember correctly there are some modes of WPA2 that is not supported . And further which are supported but to buggy to be considered ;) Some modern routers have some kind of easy setup button for n00bs ? Can this assumed to be nonfunctional for squeezeboxes ? I do urge anyone in the know to update the wiki . *the wifi ch wars I do plan to escalate. i'm I outgunned with my old wrt54gl ? Suggestion on g+n routers that can load tomato (or as 2 choice ddwrt or similar ) I'm not inclined to trust factory software on routers, but if some exist that do work well I would be happy to be wrong . This mornings wifi trouble was actually discovered by my iPad going off the air not the squeezeboxes, honestly only my radio is wifi these days for natural reasons, but iPad is important hence an N router would be nice. Anecdotally , of course everything showed full wifi strength but these kind of disturbances can manifest in other ways so using an another channel solved it . The bizarre thing was that ch 11 had many occupants but at low strength , but was anyway unusable to me , have to be on 9 or 10 now as 1-7 is clobbered by others . Normally I adhere to 1-6-11 rule regarding ch but these are fully crowded. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94496 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
