I agree with Phillipe on this one. If you pulled the wi-fi card and it
is still rebooting, then it is likely the mainboard.
The output couplers are the typical cap failure point on these. And
that would not cause this problem. If you want to take a blind stab
without deeper circuit testing,

As said above, I really do think this is the capacitor on the
motherboard

I got the screws out and removed and reset the wireless card. Same
thing happens. It reboots after a few minutes. I then took the
wireless card out and plugged an ethernet cable to it and the same thing
happens. It reboots after a few minutes.

A torx #10 fit mine quite nicely.

A faulty/dying wireless card will reboot the player even if not using
wireless.

As other said, there are 3 options
1/ External power supply ==> you tried PSU from other SB and it still
does not work, so excluded
2/ WiFi card ==> remove

I don't think so. I have 3 other Squeezeboxes and tried it on 2 of
their power supplies and the same thing happens.

If you are referring to the 2 small screws in the back, they are hex and
I tried to loosen them and they will not budge.
Could be the WiFi board, but my money is on the power supply. Generic
replacements aren't prohibitively expensive.

Are you suggesting taking the Squeezebox apart? Not sure how it would
become loose as it's never been moved since I
Have you tried seeing that the wireless card is properly seated? It's a

My Classic Slimdevice appears to have stopped working. It continually
reboots itself. I've reset it a number of times but it keeps rebooting
after so many minutes of play. I've had it for about 15 years or
longer. Perhaps it is time to let it go. However, wondering if there
is a place I can
