Thanks for the links Nikhil. I just wanted to add that I've replaced my SB3 with a Touch and I am very pleasantly surprised at the improvement in sound quality. No need to try A/B tests, it's a no-brainer, the Touch sounds very good, even if it did set me back 189 UKP. Now that I've got the

You're not the only one. I've had the same problem intermittently over the past year or so after several years of faultless service from my SB2. Seems like it is a not so rare problem with older SB2/SB3s. See this thread, and this post specifically for links to other threads.

My SP3 has given me sterling service since I bought it a few years ago, but it seems to have developed a fault that I hope is not terminal. I had it hooked up to wi-fi, working fine for months and months. Then, a few weeks back, it would just stop in the middle of a song and then carry on. It

If you are not afraid to do a little electronic surgery you can try opening the SB3 and removing the WiFi card. Removing it has helped solve such oddball behavior in the past. If the WiFi card is dead or even flaky it can cause general connection issues even when using ethernet. How/why I have

Well, it was worth a try. :) Couple of other last ditch ideas: - did you actually go through the Setup screen to choose wired? Simply plugging in an ethernet cable does not make it wired. Assuming it will even allow you into the Setup screen (press hold left arrow). - try a Xilinx reset,

Ok, what it does is to display the Logitech logo, then scrolls in the SQUEEZEBOX splash screen, then it goes blank and repeats the same cycle about 6 seconds later. If I hold down any key during power-on, you can see the display struggling to do the same cycle, but the key-presses obviously slows
