Could you please copy the content of your config.cfg file (shown on the "About" web-page). Please try to remove the MAC address (just leave it empty - and then reboot using only wifi). When you reboot your raspberry without LAN cable - you say that you can see it in your router - have you observed that it now has a different IP number from when you were connected via LAN? It is this new IP-address you will need to use when you try to connect. Can you connect from another computer using putty and the new IP-address (wifi) also have you tried to connect via your browser using the new IP-address (wifi IP)? Steen piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi (25MB in RAM).
