Unfortunately old is not synonymous with experienced. I've never run LMS off pCP...
I think it can be an issue with the Pi's hardware, with networking (on the Pi or on the switch/router), or LMS. Pi hardware: what is connected to the Pi over USB? It is a rather frequent case that users connect too many devices to the USB ports, and some get disconnected by the platform. AFAIK max current draw is 1A over the 4 ports (e.g. max 1A with 1 port, max 500mA each for 2 ports etc.) As you know, ethernet is connected via USB so an USB reset might affect your connection. The stock PSU for Pi 3 can output 2.5A over 5V sustained. If your PSU is weak, like 1A, it is possible that all the current goes to the Pi itself and not enough remains for the USB ports. It *think* "dmesg" could show something upon disconnects. Otherwise adding bootcode "syslog" to cmdline.txt in pCP will allow /var/log/messages to be created, and there you should get a regular system log. Networking: are you using DHCP? If not I would. In case there is a typo in networking config you can get disconnects/no connection at all. Make sure the IP used by pCP is indeed unique to the network, an IP conflict would create transient issues like the one you're seeing. Also if you're using one of those fancy "green ethernet" network devices, try and see if disabling power management on the port used by Pi in the switch/router changes anything. LMS: could LMS be caught in a fail/restart loop? I would open a session on pCP, check "ps" regularly and see if the main LMS process ages or on the contrary, keeps changing PID which would indicate a restart. I don't think mySB.com would have much to do with this. If you can live without Internet for a few minutes, you could try pulling the WAN cable from the router and see if players still reset. I don't see why that would change anything but when everything's lost... 3 SB 3 Libratone Loop, Zipp Mini iPeng (iPhone + iPad) LMS 7.9 (linux) with plugins: CD Player, WaveInput, Triode's BBC iPlayer by bpa IRBlaster by Gwendesign (Felix) Server Power Control by Gordon Harris Smart Mix, Music Walk With Me, What Was That Tune? by Michael Herger PowerSave by Jason Holtzapple Song Info, Song Lyrics by Erland Isaksson AirPlay Bridge by philippe_44 WeatherTime by Martin Rehfeld Auto Dim Display, SaverSwitcher, ContextMenu by Peter Watkins. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108198
