Ah!! I've had a couple of power outages recently (due to faulty kitchen equipment) and all of my radios needed to be reconnected to the wireless network manually. The Boom was fine though which MAY have a static ip. When I had my first SB3 I had some issues connecting to LMS which were resolved by having both server and sb on static ips. As a result I restricted by DHCP to only have addresses up to 192.168.xxx.174. Above that is reserved for static ips. I had assumed the problem was that when the power came back the radios booted faster than the router and so failed to get an ip allocated. I'll try setting them as static and see what happens next time I have a power issue - although hopefully that won't be for a while! Squeezebox Plus, Naim nDAC, NAC202, NAP200, Focal Cobalt 816.
