Also temporarily try it on WiFi but much closer to the router. What are your walls made of? Perhaps the wall construction is hampering the signal? toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553

Hello I've been having an ongoing problem with my Squeezebox continually cutting out. It happens several times a day, like 5 - 20. This has been going for several months now. At first I thought it was my router since it continually needed rebooting. The router and modem have both since been

Some more info would be helpful. Are you listening to a local LMS or mysqueezebox.com? If LMS, is your server wired to the router, or is it also on wifi? Is it cutting out on local music files, streaming services, or both? Is there a possibility of wifi interference, be it from other wifi
