Re: [SlimDevices: Duet] Minimalistic Duet setup

2016-07-30 Thread RonM

Although my memory is a little vague, and it won't apply to your
situation given the hardware you are using, for a couple of years I took
my music with me via Squeezeboxen when on vacation in the tropics. 
Difference is I used a laptop I was taking with me anyway and a Boom. 

I used an -ad hoc- wifi connection between the laptop (with the server
and music) and the Boom, no router involved.  I suspect you could do
this with the Receiver, so long as it was all set up at home with an
internet connection.  I'm quite sure that my receiver worked fine when
the internet was down, a not uncommon situation where I live in the
country.

I should add that ad hoc connections with the Windows version I was
using at the time were a bit of an adventure.  In subsequent years I
actually took an old router, and given the very low cost of these that
might be the best option.

Re: [SlimDevices: Duet] Duet Controller Won't Charge if On...

I continued using Controllers long after others had migrated to mobile
apps (what I do now). On multiple occasions I had to replace batteries
after symptoms just like those described.  I still have a spare.

You can easily find replacements fairly cheaply on Amazon (e.g.
https://www.amazon.com/Pack-Replacement-Lithium-Ion-Compatible-190582-0001/dp/B00FABVIG4)
and elsewhere.
