With at least 3 different networks in your vicinity, this is likely to
be the problem.
Turning off encryption will only mask the problem a bit, but at the
expense of major security loss.

Sean: I've opened up the SB2 and checked for loose connections and
everything appears okay. That white connector is fully seated, and it
also looks 'glued', so I assume it's one of the 'updated' units. The
sticker stuck inside says 'Slim Devices May.30 05'
I've powered it back up, put it 2 feet
Hi,
Sorry to pipe in so late but only just read the thread. I had a SB1 and
purchased a SB2 and sold the SB1 to a friend. He had real trouble
getting it working with his Belkin router. The only way it would work
was with encryption off, which is not acceptable. So he purchased a
linksys router
At this point I'm pretty sure it's one of two things:
1) a flaky router: your router may be crashing or rebooting. I had this
problem with a new netgear router until I updated the router's firmware,
then everything was fine.
2) a failed wireless module in the SB2. This is extremely unlikely
Here's my thought the SB2 is trying to connect to the Linksys
network since it is a stronger signal. I don't have an SB2 (have one
SliMP3 and 2 SB1s) so I'm not sure if it is different in the way it
finds the networks but... what if it is somehow seeing the Linksys
network and trying to

Is there a way to force the SB2 to ignore one network and only use the
one you specify?
That's what the SSID is for.

I can't offer any help (hopefully Robin can though) but I'd like to
commend CavesOfTQLT on his approach in this thread. I can understand
his frustration (even more so given the pump problem), but his post
sticks pretty much to the facts and asks for help without allowing his
frustration to sour
I've been using my Pre-N with SB2 for months now, without trouble. It
worked with both the original Pre-N firmware, and the most recent. I
use WPA-PSK (personal). Versions 15-latest of the SB2 firmware.

It does sound like a wireless issue - I'm betting that going wired will
prove it (EDIT: just seen your post above and it does). I wonder if
you have other wireless networks on the same channel in your vicinity?
Have you tried changing wireless channels?

Yep, there is,
Once you've moved the AP / SB2 closer (for testing), please post your
results.
The DoS attack you are seeing with the 10/8 network is in almost
definitely from your neighbor's Linksys, since that private IP is not
routable (and unlikely to be spoofed).
Using WPA could have caused additional

Via the ethernet cable the SB2 is functioning just as I'd expect it to.
But when it comes to wireless there seems to be a major problem. The
units have direct line of sight, and at the same altitude, aerials

Here's what you'd be dealing with internally:

I know it is annoying if things don't work, especially after a lot of

Have you tried using SqueezeNetwork on your SB2? If thats unrelibale

points the finger more towards a network/SB problem. If it's ok, then

Q:'How big is the music library?'
A: Well after losing quite a lot with the changing over of the HD
between Windows and Linux, the size is now [fires up Firefox to have a
look] according to the web interface says 'Your music library contains
366 albums with 7335 songs by 181 artists.'
