First of all I wanted to thank KitKat for posting the fix for the DHCP issue with regard to D-Link Routers in Turbo Mode. Sean, I seriously think this issue should be listed in FAQ section, why isn't it? D-Link routers are widely used so why wouldn't you highlight this potential setup problem

I thought Turbo-G modes needed every device on the wlan to be by the same manufacturer and have the same 3rd party extensions to the standard. I therefore wouldn't have expected it to work with the Squeezebox. Is this not the case? Max KitKat Wrote: I received my SB3s today (one wired, one

There's nothing bizarre about the IP address. The 169.254/16 address range is used for automatic configurations when a static IP is not configured and a DHCP server is not found. Your SB2 is simply not receiving its DHCP allocated address, for some unknown (as of yet) reason. Use a static IP

I'm betting your SSID and/or security method is misconfigured on your SB2, not matching your router. -- MrC ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

I find that if I connect using a cable and then go back to wireless, DHCP refuses to work until I do a hard reset. Try that (unplug power, hold down Add, reconnect power, release Add when it says Factory Reset). -- radish ___ Discuss mailing list

I'll take you up on that bet - I could use the money! The SSID is chosen from a list of available networks, and definitely matches (it also matched when I connected to the other router). The security method (none - I normally use MAC address filtering, and have added the SB2's MAC, but I've

Well, if you are selecting an SSID from a list, then your wireless *is* communicating with the router(s) ! There are only four things I can think of that will prevent the completion of the connection: 1) mac address issues, 2) filtering, 3) firewall, 4) security/authentication mechanisms. I

I agree completely! However, I can't find anything wrong with any of those settings. At this point, I'm operating on the assumption that either the SB2 or my router has gotten itself into an unstable state and needs a hard reset. If resetting both of them to the factory state doesn't fix the
