Since this seems to be a common problem and no real solution to it
exists, I have open an official bug, so I hope Slimdevices/Logitech
will take a serious look at it. I would be seriously irritated if my

the basic question is how the squeezebox firmware could be different

Is your second SB much newer and perhaps it came already with the new

I've seen this on and off for a long time. I am fixed IP wireless. I
think it must be a weakness in recovery from a lost packet. I suspect
the DHCP renegotiate just triggers lost packets.
Pressing power several times fixes it for me.

Did you roll back the server software at any point? The firmware is

Are you running Fixed IP addresses on SqueezBox and Slimserver? Running
fixed will have less glitches.
Are you running WIFI or Wired (wired can be a little more stable long
term).

One thing I did not mention in my original thread is that I used fixed
IP for my SB (at least I think I didn't - I'm in a hurry and can't
check now). It's assigned by my router, but it's fixed. All IPs on my

I have exactly the same problem!

Did you recently buy a new cordless phone? Mine does this too sometimes
but ONLY if I have just used my cordless phone. Causes some sort of
interference I guess. I changed the channel on the router and it seems
to help. It could also, I suppose, be a neighbors phone.

You could also try a factory reset (disconnect power and hold down Add

Is there anyway to put the SB3 in a kind of debug mode in order to log
what's going on? There must be a reason why it turns itself off again
after trying to connect.
