Using ethernet can make 24/96 more snappy wether you decode on server or not. it was almost impossible to use wifi and 24/96 the first weeks of Touch life but this has improved greatly .
Seems like WPA2 decryption uses a lot of cpu making it somewhat sluggish ? to handle. Run ethernet wires if possible. The whole experience is much faster an snappier when using the screen cuing up lists etc (then you can safely kill the wifi drivers etc in Touch saving even more cpu cycles) . Just try it wired I don't think you want to go back if you tried it. This wifi fad has gone a bit to far , remember when wifi was an option on the SB3 (you could buy one without wifi board) . Wifi is not a real network, it does a very good job faking a network but it's not the same as a real network :) So if networkable things like a server a router and a Touch is sitting at the same place all the time why not wire the stuff ? Wifi is for the mobile stuff like laptops, Radio ? etc that you lug around the house. Think of wifi as a finite resource you can "save" wifi by wire up as much stuff as possible, not just squeezeboxes and then you have a lot of wifi when you need it. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE rear ch.
