Hello Community,
After a factory reset of one of my Squeezeboxes Touch it is impossible
to get the home screen back after the language selection and then an
endless "Verify Ethernet Connection" hourglass running...
*Squeezebox Touch Connectivity Details*:
- Firmware 7.8.0 r16754 (running since a long time)
- Hardware Version 5
- Switched Power Supply from other Squeezebox (OK)
- Ethernet Only connection directly to the Internet Box router (fibre
router)
- DHCP is active in the router (and the SBT gets one and is pingable
on that address)
- No MAC-Filter in the router
- No Firewall in the router
- Ports 9000 and 3483 are fed through (other Squeezebox Touch and
Squeezebox Radio are still running fine)
- All the Squeezeboxes are directly connected to mysqueezebox.com
- mysqueezebox.com (52.31.254.173 and 34.247.45.207) are reached
normally by the other Squeezeboxes
-
*Problem*:
Upon power on, reset, factory-reset again with or without "+"-button or
volume-up-button or "home"-button pressed on the remote control at the
same time, the Squeezebox Touch gets to the language screen and then
remains in the Ethernet Connectivity Check "Verifying the Ethernet
Connection" forever...
*Observations*:
- The problematic Squeezebox Touch gets its local IP-address and can
be pinged. Of course, it refuses any SSH-connection since it has been
factory reset and cannot be configured because of the home screen not
willing to appear...
- I noticed exactly the same behavior with a FAT-formatted SD-card
inserted with a former fab4.bin firmware (downloaded from slimdevices)
on it (at top-level), hoping it would be detected and asked for an
optional downgrade... BTW, on inserting the SD-card after powered on,
the latter is recognized and the Squeezebox Touch Server menu appears
(no way to proceed to a firmware-modification however). Thereafter the
endless Verify Ethernet Connection is back forever... Apparently no
way to get the home screen in order to manually configure the SBT!
-
*Question*:
=> Is there any way to get over this endless Ethernet Connection
checking? Is there any hidden serial port or JTAG (eventually to be
soldered) on the board to access the device and to force the home screen
to appear?
Many thanks for your help
Kind regards
