I tried so many things, including inSSIDer. Channel 6 wasn't even the least congested channel in my area - it's just the only one that worked. I tried 1 and 11 as well. I have something like 7 or 8 wireless devices, including SB3, SB Touch, and SB Boom, and the Radio was the only one that even hinted at a problem the whole time. It also started happening seemingly out of the blue. When I first got my Radio, I don't think I had this problem. It was either some firmware upgrade or some other environmental thing that made it start. I can't remember if it was around the time I changed my cordless phones from 5.8GHz to DECT, but it may have been... Anyway, can't explain it... I just know that on any other channel, it was disconnecting in an unrecoverable way after anywhere from 10-30 minutes of play time with two different brands of routers... and as soon as I locked it to channel 6, it's now been more than a year since that happened, including with an additional router upgrade as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mbg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3200 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=100731 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
