[slim] Two Web Interfaces, One Server?

2008-03-09 Thread NeilB

I've done a quick search and can't find a discussion about this (cue :
someone instantly post up a link to the answer :) )

Is it possible to have device specific web interfaces? The handheld
and N70 skins are great for mobile devices but are pointless when
accessing the SqueezeCenter on my laptop/desktop.

No way!

I never knew that - is that a new thing?

Anyway, thanks :)

Oh dear

And I've only been a Squeezebox owner for about 5 years.

[slim] Two SB3s, very different wireless rates?

2007-07-10 Thread NeilB

I have two SB3s. Poking around in my Apple Airport admin utility I
noticed a Wireless Clients list that I hadn't seen before (I've only
recently bought it).

From the MAC addresses I deciphered which of the clients were my two
SB3s. Here's the typical readings from the columns;

(SB3 1)
Signal -55
Noise -88
Rate 54

(SB3 2)
Signal -70
Noise -88
Rate fluctuates between 8 and 12

Now the second SB3 is one floor up from the first one in the house
(we're on 3 floors, router being on the ground) but that's a big drop
off in rate isn't it?

I'm just about to physically swap them over and see what happens but I
thought I'd post here to see if anyone had an explanation?

2007-07-10 Thread NeilB

Well, I answered my own question there.

Moved the SB3 from the top floor to the middle floor and the rate is
changed to a steady 54.

Hm :(

[slim] Airport Extreme and WEP - SB wrongly detects WPA2

2007-07-03 Thread NeilB

I've just upgraded my wireless router to a new Airport Extreme and,
well, as per the title really. When configuring the networking, SB3
discovers the base station OK but incorrectly determines the password
required in WPA2 form, whereas in fact the base station has a WEP
password.

I think this is a symptom of when I originally setup the base station
and I used WPA2 but had to change it to WEP as one of my devices
couldn't connect with WPA2 (yes, I know, I'd rather have WPA2 but
currently that one rogue device doesn't allow it).

I've tried factory-reseting the SB but to no avail. Is there no way to
manually select the type of encryption?

 What is your SSID? Are you sure you are connected to the right network?
 The SB3 will only detect what you have, also double check your
 encryption.

It picks up the correct SSID and network, it just thinks I'm using WPA2
for some reason when I'm not. Entering the password key (that works on
my laptops and other computers) causes SB to eventually (counts down to
0 when trying to establish communication) throw up an error that reads;

Problem : Wireless encryption failure

 Have you tried to power cycle your router? Is there upgraded firmware
 for your router? Try changing the routers encryption to something else
 and see if the SB3 will connect then. Keep in mind to always do a
 factory reset on the SB3 to keep a common ground while testing.

Several time and it's bang up-to-date firmware-wise.

The SB will connect if I have the base-station encryption set to WPA2,
but I've had to change it to WEP and the SB doesn't recognize the
change. What is wierd though is I *know* I've seen the network setup
sequence display a list of different encryptions for you to select but
for the life of me I don't know how or why it was there and, more
importantly, why I can't get it back on?

Nope, just alters the first letter/number in the password/key.

Re: [slim] Airport Extreme and WEP - SB wrongly detects WPA2

2007-07-03 Thread NeilB

Cool, I'll give that a try.

I did manage to reveal the encryption selection page which has a side
effect that allowed me to get it working.

1 - Select Enter network name
2 - The last network you connected to will be displayed. Change it
(first character will do) so that the name is incorrect and then press
the right arrow to go to the next page.
3 - You'll then be able to chose from 5 different encryption types. I
selected WEP 128 bit, then on the key entry page I pressed the left
arrow to go back to the network selection.
4 - Select Enter network name and then fix the network name you
previously altered.
5 - The next page then says Enter WEP key
6 - Enter the key and it works.

I don't know why it works but it does. However, I think I'll follow the
procedure in that bug as it seems more solid :)

Thanks

In you situation I think I'd go with an SB3 combined with a set of
small powered speakers. I have a pair of these in the office and
they're just great for the money;

[slim] Re: Duplicate Albums

2006-10-09 Thread NeilB

After having some duplicate album issues myself, I think I finally found
out what was causing them. Somehow, some of the tracks had V1 and V2
tags. Removing the V1 tags solved the problem. I used a program called
Dr Tag to do it - I did try to do the same with MP3Tag but for some
reason it didn't properly delete them.

[slim] Re: FairPlay News - a way forward?

2006-10-05 Thread NeilB

Sorry guys, should've clarified the post with some reason for it's
existence. I realise that the news story says he's able to license the
tech to enable non-Apple devices to play DRM files but I read that as a
bit of a smoke screen, with the fact that he's cracked the DRM being the
*actual* news story, for interested parties who, like many here, want to
play ITMS songs on their SqBoxes.

Kind of a half-step to nirvana, if you like.

[slim] Wireless Bridging?

2005-11-24 Thread NeilB

Is it possible to have a SB3 act as a wireless bridge AND still play
music via the slimserver?

I know I could try it but am not at home at them moment and will be
purchasing something (non SB related) - or not - on the strength of
whether you can or not.

Thanks.

[slim] Roll back / uninstall 6.5 beta?

I've been using the 6.5 beta for a while and, now that it's released, I
want to start using 6.2.1.

How do I go about uninstalling 6.5 and is it necessary to roll back the
