the router was on channel 1, where everything worked fine, except my laptop which frequently lost connection. As another remote network is broadcasting on same channel 1 (I live in a city), I decided to move to channel 6, where I could not see other radio activity.
So I changed the settings in the router to channel 6, did a factory reset in the SB3 (as suggested in this threat) and tried to re-connect...without success. The SB3 keeps looking for a radio signal and times out after 30 seconds. No success for another try. I have not yet sniffed radio signals while the SB3 is looking for connection yet, as suggested in this threat; I will do that to see what is going on. funny thing is that when I repeat the whole procedure and change back to radio setting 1 I get inmediate connection. I am in Europe, my modem is on Europe settings, as is my SB3. I use IEEE 802.11g standard (=2.4GHz) with WPA2 encryption. The thing with European WiFi radio signals is that the radio channels do partly overlap; so you need at least 4 channels between two adjacent settings to get the least radio interference. see "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2.4_GHz_Wi-Fi_channels_(802.11b,g_WLAN).png -- history ------ 1 SB3 + DACMagic + Rotel + Transmission line speakers 1 Boom 1 MSI Barebone AXIS VIA C7 1.5GHz with FreeNAS + SlimNAS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ history's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29747 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67854 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
