Thank you for your detailed report: -...none of them have an apostrophe...- The logs would not contain entries with a single quote (a.k.a. used as an apostrophe on a keyboard), because the single quote would cause a fault in the logging function, causing the exit before the log is written. You might see a single quote using any other WiFi client, e.g., a cell phone. A planned update should address this limitation. -...music will pause for a while and a \"rebuffering\" message ...- How long is the pause? What is your signal level and connection speed? Once the connection is reestablished, there might be some additional processing to reestablish the music stream. Consider changing the 6 failed ping threshold to 3 failed pings to reduce the outage by about 8 seconds (2.6 seconds * 3 fewer ping trials), it may do the trick. -...wlanpoke exiting for no reason after a wifi reset attempt....- Is the reset attempt from wlanpoke, or using the radio's UI? In any event, the script should not have a fault here. Any assistance in finding the fault would be very helpful. I was running the script in an 'ash shell with debugging enabled' (https://github.com/PomDev2/wlanpoke/issues/7#issuecomment-963230049) to catch an exit that only rarely, but it never did before the power failed and rebooted the radio and stopped the trial run. -...the web server with info (i use the slow option) seems to fail with some regularity....- Another user reported this as well on 'github' (https://github.com/PomDev2/wlanpoke/issues/4). That was perhaps never resolved. It is quite a mystery. Too bad it doesn't happen here on my seven radios. For completeness, try the 'quick' option. You can get the full report, and refresh it to get the most up to date info. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ POMdev's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70558 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111663 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
