Re: [slim] Rebuffering problem with wireless network....
Is the NAS wired to the network if not do that you cut the load in half . 20% is not good , as you see when syncing the player with worst wifi would ruin it . There are countless treads on this forum on how to trace wifi problems , read them a lot of good hints . Having many neighbours with wifi ? But my 0.02$: *Squeezeboxes wifi is not the best . *wifi itself is problematic and in some enviroments with disturbances and competing networks it just won't do . Therefore instead of wasting to much time fighting wifi issues just wire up as much as possible of the system . IMO things that don't move should have Ethernet , leave wifi to the portable stuff .

Re: [slim] Rebuffering problem with wireless network....
Are all the Squeeze devices wireless? What music format is going over your network, FLAC, WAV, MP3? I think WAV would be most taxing and MP3 would be the least. What about the 7 cameras, are they live video and wireless? If the answer is yes, I'd start shutting off cameras. If you get to where all the cameras are shut down and still have the rebuffering then you know your cameras aren't overloading the network causing the squeezes to be rebuffering. I'm sure others will chime in here too. 2 Duets - 1 for upstairs and 1 for downstairs Rock Solid with LMS 7.8.0 and WHS 2011 w3wilkes's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22973 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101768 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Rebuffering problem with wireless network....
I am running 6 synchronized squeezeboxes (3 Touch, 3 Radio) on a wireless network through LMS on a current (fast) Readynas NAS. I am getting constant rebuffering ( can range from a few seconds to a minute) to the point that its completely unusable. This occurs irrespective of whether I am using my local library or internet radio streaming. Signal strength ranges 100% to 20% (strangely the 20% is second closest to the router). I have tried a complete power cycle of the router and squeezeboxes but that hasn't helped. I am also running 7 Logitech Alert security cameras but my limited understanding is that they should not be causing interference. I have tried to eliminate other issues such as microwave etc but still have the problem. I would greatly appreciate any help or suggestions as I need to get it working for a important function next week. Thank you in advance. morthan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=30644 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101768 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Squeezebox Classic - not dead
My SB3 had stopped working completely and I was thinking of binning it, but the red ethernet light was glowing. After reading other posts I bought a new power plug and it now works. SB3 is now fine. A good tip from the forum. mikeswingler's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14927 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101765 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
