For security a lot of routers have a default setting that prevents wifi clients from communication with each other. If there is a network issue, how you have setup up the Linksys device is probably the key. I'm guessing the switch is a basic "dumb" unmanaged consumer device. The simplest setup would to set the Linksys device as a AP and all routing, DHCP, DNS are done by Vodafone router. Otherwise you could have two interconnected routers that can route - that needs to be setup carefully.

Most modern routers allows users to set defined IP address according to MAC and so all devices can be setup to be DHCP and all IP assignments are then managed from the router. Since NAS is setup manually - you need to make sure network interface setting (i.e. address mask, default route address) are the same for DHCP assigned devices and the NAS device. > I think I had assumed discovery was the other way - players discovering > LMS on local network.

A player broadcasts a single packet and all servers reply with their details. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116139 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
