http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3778 I seem to have fixed my problem, although I haven't updated the bug report yet as I'm still investigating. My problem may have had something to do with IP address allocation. I was getting frustrated with the reconnection problem, so I restarted my squeezeboxes and went through all the connection settings again, this time changing from dynamic IP addresses to fixed IP addresses. I noticed that both squeezeboxes seemed to be suggesting that DHCP had allocated the same dynamic IP for both boxes. Also, my desktop PC hosting slimserver has always had a fixed IP address of 192.168.1.2, but the squeezeboxes were reporting the slimserver IP address of 192.168.1.3. It was strange because although the boxes wouldn't reconnect, I found that pressing power button twice would force the box to connect and it would be fine until slimserver was restarted. I recently updated my routers firmware (a Linksys WAG54GX2) - something could have got messed up by that. I see that other LinkSys routers have had some new firmware releases that have screwed DHCP, so I have stuck with fixed IP addresses.
