there is a setting in SBS to allow you to force it to proxy an internet stream to the hardware, instead of the hardware handling it directly (and alone). not sure where, but its in there. (it is not a web surfing proxy, thats different and unrelated to this) in order to do that, you will need

By hit it i meant i can't connect the Squeezebox to SBS, and i installed it locally and while the squeezebox said it never connected. It did somehow get connected once just long enough to update. But since then, it's impossible for either device to see one another. According to the sonicwall

my understanding is the default way internet radio works is that regardless of how you start the connection, ultimately it becomes a direct connection between the hardware and the internet source of the stream. b/c i was complaining to Andy, he did put in a feature in SBS where you can force SBS
