My first post. Rather than start a new thread, this thread seems to be closest to the problem I have. For a long time, I was under the impression my SB3 remote control was broken, but this didn't matter as I had used a smartphone app to control my SB3 for a while. Then I overhauled my home

Net::UDP does work with a SB3. You have to start from a full reset of the SB3 however so it will be looking for a connection, if I understand correctly. There's a reset and then a Xilinx reset as well. I don't remember how to do them, so you'll have to search, or wait for someone with a better

I have not seen anything directly applicable to bad capacitors in SBs. This site helped me recover a video card with bad caps: http://www.badcaps.net/ There might be something about SBs in their forum. Might try a google search on their domain.

Thanks guys! That sounds promising. I would be OK with a dead unit if need be, and can do without the wifi card; but getting one of them is the main issue; so going to fixer-upper way seems interesting. Altough, I might have a few questions in the process.

I'll second what chrisla said. All the bricked SB2s SB3s I've come across (several) have been bricked due to bad wireless cards. Crack the case and remove the card and I've always found you end up with a perfectly functioning (albeit wired-only) SqueezeBox.

In the checklist it forgets to mention that if the receiver was previously configured for wireless you will have to do a factory reset for the receiver to recognize that it has a ehternet cable attached. Don't know if this is true for the SB3.
