I'm just curious -
If maximum bandwidth of .11g is 54 Mb/s and typical throughput is about
19 Mb/s, why does the SB v3 seem to top out at 3-5 Mb/sec (at least
using the built-in test plug-in)? I'm using the SB in bridge mode to a
Denon 3808CI and get not-infrequent drop-outs.

It doesn't, that's just the network test plugin's maximum. Streaming
audio files, you'll never need to go higher than about 5 Mbps, which
would be 24/96 WAV (4608 kbps).

This is a very strange and generally inadviseable thing as if it works,
it will let someone on the internet create broadcast traffic on your

The WOL packet is a broadcast so it shouldn't matter, but to answer
your question I believe if it doesn't know it will behave like a hub
and send it to all ports.

So the last thing I tried was to power the router on last, but that
didn't help. Does anyone know why the router might be breaking the

switch in place - not
I'm not using ad-hoc mode either. I tried downgrading to the firmware
with slimserver 6.5.0 (FW 65 I think), turned bridging off, then back
on, and it didn't work, then FW 55 (6.3.1), and it still didn't work.
When going back to FW 55 I needed to re-enter the WPA key.
I didn't have much time

If I connect my server to a squeezebox 2 with the ethernet cable, can I
then access the server wirelessly using the Wireless bridge function in
the squeezebox, without having to have a seperate wireless access card
in the server.
I just want to use a VERY simple stripped down server.
