Thanks to the excellent guide on www.marsboer.net I successfully set up
a Debian fileserver (4.0) on following hardware:
- Asus A7N8X motherboard
- AMD 1800+
- 1 * 120 GB SATA Seagate HD (OS)
- 1 * 320 GB SATA Seagate HD (Files)
- 10/100 MB/s ethernet connection to D'Link 524UP wireless router.
Router is updated with latest firmware from D'link (ver 1.06).
- 1 GB RAM
- 350W power supply

Server configured with static IP. Filesharing configured with samba and
works ok. Network tested with iperf, result abt 80 mb/s. Ping OK from
- server to receiver and remote,
- seperate laptop on wireless to server, remote and receiver, 
- ping feature on router to server, remote and receiver

SqueezeCenter-version: 7.2 - 22900 @ Tue Aug 26 10:45:08 PDT 2008 -
Debian - NO - utf8

Perl-version: 5.8.8 i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi
MySQL-version: 5.0.32-Debian_7etch6
Platfor marchitecture: i686-linux

Server status reports receiver to be connected: 
Navn: Squeezebox, Modell: receiver
Firmware: 47
IP adress: 192.168.0.102:21979
MAC: 00:04:20:16:c9:d6
Wireless signal strenght: 83

Everythings peachy until i press play on remote (or from server web
interface).

Then receiver indicator light goes directly to red, followed by cycles
through yellow and green before it goes red again and so on. On remote
it loops the first 10-20 seconds of the song. Every now and then I get
small burst of sound (so at least I know the receiver is capable of
playback and properly connected to my stereo : (.

After days of reinstalling (complete and partial), testing, pointless
purchase (new ethernet card to server), endless reading of installation
guides, howtos, forums and numerous setbacks after believing I've found
the sollution i'm out of ideas.

My prime suspect has been router configuation. The D'Link 524 UP has a
built in firewall. As far as I can understand it can not be entirely
disabled. I'have however put server in DMZ and opened ports on tcp/udp
3483 and tcp 9000 both with firewall rules.

No error registered i SqueezeCenter logfile:
[08-10-03 22:15:53.2512]
Slim::Control::Commands::playlistcontrolCommand (1630) Begin Function

Playback from server with SoftSqueeze on laptop via wireless functions
ok.

Any ideas or pointers towards identifying problem and working sollution
would be excellent.
