Re: [slim] Preferred AP list in WiFi?

2008-04-11 Thread tlimon

@FredFredrickson: Both APs have the same SSID and Key (same PSK) in
order to allow seamless roaming on the laptop.  

@danco:  I hadn't thought of mac blocking, I'll check into that on the
livingroom AP.  Great suggestion!

[slim] Preferred AP list in WiFi?

2008-04-10 Thread tlimon

Is there a way to select a preferred AP list from within the SB?

I now have a strange problem with one of my two wireless SB2s:  About
once or twice a day, my SB2 in the office attaches to the WiFi access
point in the living room (60 feet away) instead of the AP in the Office
(10 feet away).  When this occurs, the signal strength drops to 50% and
Shoutcast stutters and stops playing.  Normally, the office AP has 90%
signal.  Why would the SB opt for a weaker signal?  Does it autoroam? 
Can I change the order somewhere? Both APs have the same SSID to allow
roaming with my laptop. 

My only workaround is to change the SSID of the living room AP to
something different and reboot the SB.  

Office router-AP: Netgear WGR614v5 WPA-PSK Channel 1  
Living room AP: Netgear WG602v2 WPA-PSK Channel 11
both SSID's set to broadcast

Re: [slim] Completely stuck after 7.0 upgrade

2008-04-08 Thread tlimon

I too, am stuck and frustrated after the 7.0 upgrade.  My wireless SB2's
are plagued with low signal, drop off the net, and, for the most part,
are unusable.  I've tried the nightly's, but am still dissatisfied with
the performance.  

Can someone point me to the download link for 6.5.4?  I'm done with 7.0
