Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] My clock stopped working! How do I get it back?

2022-11-11 Thread Tony T


This happens to me on piCorePlayer if I experience a power outage and
piCorePlayer reboots before my router, thereby piCorePlayer cannot
connect for the time and sets it to initial epoch time (i.e. 00:00:00
UTC on 1 January 1970)

Rebooting the ipCorePlayer (through the WebUI, and after shutting down
LMS) solved it for me.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] WiFi Connect Issue Call to Arms

2022-01-26 Thread Tony T

I’m frustrated as well, but at least I was able to solve the problem
with a Wi-Fi->Ethernet dongle that I found out about here. (I used a
Vonets). it needs to be powered, so I use this on 3 Radios that I never
use as a portable. I have 1 other Radio that I use as a portable, and if
playing, the connection lasts most of the day (may have to do 1 re-boot)

FWIW, I've been running 3 Vonets for 18mo with the SB Power Supply. 
(The Vonets has a wide spec of 5VDC to 15VDC, so might be able to handle
an add's 3v — YMMV)

Go with the WiFi to Ethernet dongle. Vonets working for me for over a

One annoyance with the Vonets is an extremely bright LCD light, but
popping open the case (it’s press fit) and covering the light on the

Unless all 4 are used as portable, did you try a wired Ethernet
connection (didnt see if you did), or use a WiFi to Ethernet
dongle?  Ive been using a Vonets for over a year on 3 of my 4 SB
Radios (the 4th I use as a portable and have to reboot to use, but the
connection is stable for most of the day when playing)

Yes, its cost about $100 ($25/ea) for the 4 Vonets, but for me,
it was worth it.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Work-around for SqueezeBoxRadio wifi drop-out

2021-09-26 Thread Tony T


Simple, thanks for this.
wlanpoke is effective, and has a lot of logging to help in investigation
of the problem to assist in a true fix, but unfortunately, a true fix,
as you noted, requires an updated wireless driver (not going to happen),
or a new-user created one (don't see that happening either).
Never took the time to really understand the script in wlanpoke, but
yours is short enough for me to comprehend (thanks).
Now that wlanpoke is working for me (needed to use the -x switch for
me), i'm going to give your workaround a try.

I'm saving the logs to etc/wlanpoke/log, so they survive a reboot, also
just added -F 4 this morning (would that help?).
(BTW, df shows only 7% of the SB Radio being used, and as you rotate the
logs, not sure why you don't put the logs into a folder that survives a
re-boot)

I did try this a year ago when I first had the issue — didn’t work for
me.
I’ve been using a Vonets for 3 of my 4 radios. The 4th I use as a

The positive is that after a reboot, when playing the connection is
stable for about 6 hours.

I have a few radios.  One I carry outdoors (the others I use Vonnets),
so I finally got around to installing wlanpoke. Working well so far
(thanks POMdev)
I like logging, so Im not disabling with -x.
I see the log file in /etc/log on the Radio, but Im confused with
whats described in the Manual:
 The software will try to send messages to a logging server, by
default the computer running Logitech Media Server (LMS) on the default
port (1121).

Is there supposed to be a log file for wlanpoke on my raspberry pi
running piCore?   If so, I dont see it.

The problem, for me, is interference from a neighbors WiFi and the WiFi
chip in the SB Radio. No issues with my SB Touch (different WiFi. 
chip), and no prob with the SB Radio at a different location (vac home).
Chip cant be changed, so the only fix is to use the Ethernet
Port of the Radio, or a WiFi to Ethernet dongle (i.e. Vonets)

The  Vonets case is a simple press fit.  Pop open, a tiny bit of black
electric tape over the LEDs, snap the case back together, and no more
annoying lights.

I only have the disconnects with the SB Radio, the SB Touch never looses

Thanks for your work on wlanpoke.
I suspect that the wireless issue will not be able to be satisfactory
resolved as I think it is an issue with the old chip and not a software
issue, so an Ethernet connection (with or without the dongle) or
wlanpoke will be solution to the problem.

CBRF= Community-Build-Radio-Firmware
It’s not clear if wlanpoke is included in the CBRF.
(I Appreciate the work you’ve done with wlanpoke, and posted on GitHub
is great, but I think it would be a better idea to have you’re own
thread on wlanpoke as it is impossible to follow any discussions on
wlanpoke when it’s in two threads.)

About a year ago, I suspected that a Google WiFi upgrade was the cause
of my disconnects.  
I tried the newer GoogleWiFI, then Eeos, and finally an Asus — nothing
fixed my problem, and I'm certain now that the problem was caused by a
neighbors WiFI causing interference.

I also was unable to do a direct wired to my router (well, it would have
been a lot of work), and then I read here on of of these threads about
the Vonets dongle, and that fixed it for me.

The 18v SB Radio and 5-15v Vonets was noted in the post I linked above. 
I would expect that to immediately burn out the Vonets, not after weeks
or months of connection.  The Vonets are cheap units, but so far,

After years of no issues, all 4 of my radios (but not my Touch) kept
dropping WiFi, and only a re-boot temporary re-established the
connection. I tried a different Meah router and an ASUS router (which I
liked, so it replaced my Google WiFi)
Nothing worked.  I’m certain that in my case it’s interference from a
neighbors WiFo combined with the old WiFi card in the Radio. 

A WiFi to Ethernet adaptor was my solution.

Does the Touch use the same Atheros WiFi chip as the Radio?  I also have
WiFi dropping on all of my Radios, but not on my Touch. 
Also, for me it is most likely interference from neighbors causing the

WiFi started dropping, so in my case it appears to be interference from
neighbors.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Squeezebox Radio Keeps Disconnecting from Wifi - Possibly failing wifi card?

2020-07-13 Thread Tony T

After years of no connection issues, all 4 of my SB Radios (but not my
Touch) suddenly keeps dropping WiFi and only a reboot fixes it for about
15 minutes. Fixed channel didn’t help.  I had a Google WiFi, and
replaced it with an ASUS to get greater control of the router! Including
setting a fixed channel.  
My only solution was to get a WiFi to Ethernet adaptor and set it as an
Access Point

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Squeezebox Radio keeps losing wireless connection and won't reconnect - any ideas?

2020-07-12 Thread Tony T


Set up a VAP11G-300 yesterday, and connection maintained on SB Radio via
ethernet for over 12 hrs, so I'll call this a success.  I'll get more
VAP11G-300 for my other Radios, and hopefully there's not an issue with
multiple VAP11G-300

(Wish I could get the SB Radio wireless working though)

Things of note:  Setup of VAP11G-300 is simple, but instructions could
be better.  No need for a 'hotspot', so disable on the VAP11G-300. 
Lights are BRIGHT.  Can't just tape over, as it will block the vents,
and anyway, the lights still bleed through the case  Need to pop
open the VAP11G-300 case (easy, it's just press fit), and place a small
bit of electric tape over the LED's on the VAP11G-300 board.

I'll look into that, but in the meantime, I forgot about a wireless to
ethernet adapter that was previously suggested as I was knocking my head
against the wall trying to get the WiFi working (it's most likely
interference from my neighbor causing the problem).  On another thread,
a Vonets VAP11G-300 was used by someone with the WiFi dropping issue,
and what's nice about it is that the SB Radio's power supply can power
both the dongle and the radio. (see:
https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?109953-WiFi-connection-unstable-lost-on-three-Radios=932270=1#post932270).

Just got an Asus to replace my Google WiFi after my SB Radios started
losing network connection.
The Asus give greater control, so time to "play"

Setting a fixed channel (that I verified was not being used by
neighbors) didn't help.
Radios still disconnected after about an hr.

Looked into what "Channel Bandwidth" means, and yes, 20mhz is best for a
2GHz band as it only uses 1 channel (40mhz bonds 2 channels).  But, not
sure if the Asus was using 20 or 40 in 20/40 setting.  We'll see if
locking in at 20mhz works.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Squeezebox Radio keeps losing wireless connection and won't reconnect - any ideas?

2020-07-06 Thread Tony T

After years of no problems, last week my 4 SB Radio’s keep disconnecting
from my network.  I also have a SB Touch, and that never gets dropped
from my Network. 
I’m using Google WiFi, and thought that their recent s/w update was the
problem, but tried an eero and same problem. 
I had my LMS on a Mac-mini, and thought that may be the problem. I’ve
been wanting to move to a pCP, so did, same problem
Only a re-boot reconnects. 

Interference from neighbors, as suggested here might be the problem. 

Another thought —. Since pCP can be configured as a WAP, and has channel
selection, is this a possible fix, or would the fact that the pCP would
still be connected to the Google WiFi still cause issues.   

I don’t mind trying a new router, but which one?

Everything working great (garym, thanks for the help).

When the time comes for an update to piCorePlayer, will my settings be

I would think that if I burn a new image of pCP to the micro SD that I
would lose my LMS settings.
Or does the image get burned to a partition different than the pCP

(Had to fiddle around before I realized that after setting up

scan my flash drive to get the music up and running (I kept searching

[SlimDevices: Radio] SB Radio won't turn on

Hi,

My SB Radio will no longer turn on.
If I HOLD the power button, after about 30 seconds I get the Logitech
welcome screen and sometimes the Free Your Music screen (but no
further), but as soon as I let go of the power button, it goes off. 
Tried removing the battery, using just the AC, reinstalling the
battery.

Is there anything that I can try (i.e. some secret button to hold to get
into a diagnostics mode).

 Is it in hibernate mode and started just before the alarm is about to
 trigger ?

No, but if it were, the internal alarm should sound.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] With 7.7.1, the Alarm is not working.

2012-01-06 Thread Tony T

Looks like the Alarm not sounding may be related to the error:
Slim::Networking::SqueezeNetwork::Players::_player s_error (317) 
Unable to get players from SN: Connect timed out: , retrying in 900
seconds
Since I've resolved the above error by restarting SBS (thanks pippin)
after a re-boot (this is a workaround), the alarm has sounded, and
there have been no SBS errors in 4 days.

Working for 2 days now.  Possible that the server (mac-mini)
re-booted.
So, looks like your suggestion to restart the server software, not the
Mac is the fix.
And it looks like this is somehow related to my Alarm issue as the
alarm has sounded for the past 2 days also.

Thanks!

 Restart the server, it's a known issue.
 Do you use a Mac?

Yes, I use a Mac
I've restarted the sever multiple times, and the error persists.

 Oh, ok. Then did you try bluegaspode's suggestion?.

Yes -- that was the first thing I tried, then I tried re-starting SBS,
then posted a bug report,then I posted here :)
FWIW, the problem started with 7.7.1

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] With 7.7.1, the Alarm is not working.

virgiliomi;680365 Wrote: 
 It looks to me like there's something on your computer or system
 changing the time at or near 8:00 (your alarm time). It's setting the
 time ahead, causing the EXACT alarm time (8:00:00) to be missed. Even
 though 5 seconds later it checks the alarms, that's 5 seconds too late
 for the alarm that was just missed.
 
 Maybe have your time adjustment happen earlier, if it's something you
 can control? Or set the alarm time one minute later?

This happens no matter what time the Alarm is set to go-off.  And the
only thing occurring on the server at that time is the Alarm (the
server is 'sleeping')

Also, I had no issue before 7.7.1

 Local Server.  Server is ok, but even if it wasn't the SB Backup Alarm
 would sound.  
 Something is turning the Alarm OFF (as indicated by the SB Radio
 Screen), but the settings have it ON.  Very strange.  Started with
 7.7.1

Pascal Hibon;678853 Wrote: 
 That is strange indeed. 
 Is the Radio connected wireless? Maybe it is loosing the wireless
 network on occasions. That would still not explain why the alarms go
 into the off state but that could explain why the alarm settings are
 different in the Radio and on the server.
 Did you try a factory reset of the Radio?

Yes, wireless.  Didn't try a factory re-set.
I just set the logging for the Radio Alarm to debug per suggestion on
bugzilla, so that may hold some clues (...but my problem is now
intermittent -- Alarm went off this a.m.)
