I am new to the Squeezebox. I bought two recently as Christmas gifts. After setting them up and demoing them for the recipients, I am not happy with the performance. Perhaps I am doing something wrong.
1) The remote stinks. Is there a cheap remote that I can buy that has individual letter buttons on it? Pressing the 7 button four times to enter an S is horrible. 2) Why do search results in Rhapsody come back unsorted? Unless I enter the entire name of a band, I get back 100 hits. Then I have to search through all 100 to see if the band I am looking for is even available because they are unsorted. Ugh. Otherwise, I have to enter the whole name and press 20 buttons (on average) for a band with 10 letters in its name. 3) Why is the Squeeze Network so slow? When I press buttons on the remote, I have to wait several seconds or more between presses for the display to respond. Is this for real? Are users supposed to be accepting of this? I was using the system on FIOS, with WEP encryption (I heard about the WPA problems) and 802.11(g). There was no difference when I hooked up via an ethernet cable. 4) Why can't the Squeezebox simply pull songs from a NAS without a server installed on it (or a computer)? Sonos can, so I know it is not a technological problem. Thanks for any input.
