The diagram you want to have in mind is a bicycle wheel, and the key little word is "hub". The router is the metaphorical hub, and all the other things on your network are like spokes. So you want to have the following connections:
- internet (e.g., cable or DSL modem) to the WAN port on the router - laptop to one of the LAN ports on the router - SqueezeBox to one of the other LAN ports on the router - WD network drive to another one of the LAN ports on the router Note that all of these connections are using ethernet (aka Cat5) networking cable. You do *not* want to run a wire directly from the Squeezebox to the laptop. Good luck, and post back if you are still having problems. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26461 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
