I have looked on my cell phone, laptop and other devices and haven't seen an apostrophe for any of the SSIDs in my area. > > -...music will pause for a while and a \"rebuffering\" message ...- How > long is the pause?

The LMS server just showed the time line for the song going from 2:20 to about 2:26, then jumping back to 2:20 again and repeating. I just stopped the song playback on the radio (held down the pause) then hit play and it started playing again. I don't think this is anything associated with wlanpoke, but some issue with the radio and the LMS Server. I have seen this happen before (rarely) in the past. I will try changing it to 3 failed pings. I noticed from the logs that several times there are 1 or 2 failed pings but no more and the radio continues to work, but almost 100% of the time if there were more than 2 failed pings, it went all the way to 6 and triggered a reset. So I agree that 3 will probably be ideal for me. Is there any point in changing the ping time from the default 2 to 1 second? With it set at 2 it is closer to 2.5-3.0 seconds like you said, so I am not sure changing to 1 would shorten the time that much. > > -...wlanpoke exiting for no reason after a wifi reset attempt....- Is > the reset attempt from wlanpoke, or using the radio's UI?

I will set things back up and be sure to capture the the more detailed log that is stored on the radio this time. At the time I hadn't read through the manual file yet and wasn't aware that those had a limited size and I would lose the data after a while. So far I have only had 2 wlanpoke exits. One was within 8 hours of playing music, and the other was after 3 days of being on, but not playing music. > > -...the web server with info (i use the slow option) seems to fail with > some regularity....- Another user reported this as well on 'github' > (https://github.com/PomDev2/wlanpoke/issues/4).

I saw one person say they couldn't get wlanpoke to work for them until they added the -X option to disable the tcp logging. If you do not have -X (so logging is on) but you do not have anything receiving the log on the LMS server, does this typically cause problems? I do have ncat running on the LMS server, but I was just curious about this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ lemmy999's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9284 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111663 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
