It's always said that, this is from a year ago when it was announced:

I'm not trying to be a pain, promise :)

I would _guess_ most users want to use wifi too, so how do they enter a
key? So you could come up with a reasonable default for users who wanted
to use a wired connection with DHCP, but is that a large enough group to
put in specific firmware functionality for? Dunno, I'm not in the
Squeezebox business :)

I do agree that setting up a Duet can be a fiddle, I've done it a few
times myself. SN integration in general seems to cause a lot of
confusion (and IMHO should be covered better in the Duet manual), and
I've had plenty of trouble getting things on the network properly. One
of the reasons I prefer SB3's over SBR's in many cases.
