This bug for example . http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=17462
Regarding the reciever (part of duet ) the Ethernet connection apparently can fail to get DHCP if the gateway is not 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 . The exact circumstance i dont know , i'm no network guru either . its probably some interaction between squeezebox and buggy consumer grade routers . I can only guess that a computer can have more workarounds built it to take care of this ? How many times have you not "repaired" the network on a win laptop (or forced it to acquire a new ip with ipconfig ) on not so good networks . For example the other day one of my less used squeezeboxes , due to some fiddling it was on dhcp :P but i've not cared to corrrect that . I had to disconnect and reconnect again to the network otherwise it rebuffered ? Disclaimer I'm thinking of getting a modern router instead of the good old 54GL (with tomato fw ) I think I start to be outgunned by the neighbours in the constant wifi ch war you have when living in a flat/condo/apartment block :) -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
