If you really want to continue to use the phone as the connection to the
internet then what I would do is.
Id get a wireless Ethernet router. Thats a router with Ethernet
connection Wan side and normal lan / WiFi onnthe private side.
Then Id plug a Wireless Access Point configured in client

thanks for that.
i was reading the doc wrong.
here's what the log says:

Probably but I dont know.
Seek out a post by Ralphy and pm him
I dont now think this is a networking or squeezelite issue as you have
demonstrated that both work its solely Jivelite

If you want see what is going on - enable logging and look at log.
For example, run squeezelite with "-d slimproto=info" to check that it
connects to the LMS.

When you control squeezelite via web browser which interface do you
connect to?
Look in LMS settings / information. Are there two instances of your Pi
there as players?
Id say that Jivelite is somehow trying to control squeezelite on the
wrong interface?

This is a networking issue. Both Squeezelite & LMS issues TCP network
requests and it is up to raspbian to route them. If they are not
connecting it is how Raspbian is routing IP requests when there is no
internet.

Rasbian has proper (but limited) routing capabilities on board .
But -without- a active target aka WLAN0 or whatever the NIC is named -
there is no way "or target" for a route.

What you are trying to do is in effect make the Pi act as a router. The
default Raspbian doesnt allow for that. Its ability to work with 2
network interfaces is similar to having a LAN and WiFi on a laptop.

Ill add to that by saying that I have used a Pi as a router / vpn
server at one remote location where there is a public WiFi only and I
need a small secured LAN and access back to HO.
We used a router specific image for the Pi - cant recall which.

This is where using the Pi as a router and a mobile as the gateway falls
down.
You would find that what you are trying to achieve will work perfectly
if you used a proper 4g router but I appreciate that means swapping SIM
cards around. It is as you have surmised all to do with the lack of

Hi,
there is a lot of information and a lot is missing..
the way to change the ip must be in /etc/default/logitechmediaserver
otherwise you may end with nothing when there is a update.
DONT modifying the /etc/default/logitechmediaserver !
each NIC can have must have its own gateway! I dont

Sounds like hes rug the Pi as a router between LAN and WiFi. As
others have said LMS will bind to one address.
The use case isnt described so almost impossible to answer except one
point. Its easy to set a static or reserved ip on the LAN side.
You can reserve via whatever is running dhcp
The OP hasn't mentioned pCP, so I assume he has probably using Raspbian.

... also, there are a bunch of other command line options that move
various other functions to a specific IP address.
Maybe LMS could do with a command that moves them all to a particular
subnet so that it would not matter if the address changed through the
wonders of DHCP.
Something like
Starting LMS with command line including --httpaddr 192.168.1.23
might be the answer for you.
However, I'm not sure that pCP provides an easy way to do that from the
web interface.
