Why wouldn't it work on a wireless LAN bridged with a wired LAN?
That's the usual configuration for a network isn't it?



If the computer side is wired and the Squeezebox side is wireless and
it's a bridge, not a router, then yes, it should work.


AFAIK, routers that combine a router with a WAP let the WAP act as a 
bridge between the wireless network. I guess it's possible to act as a 
router between the two but I doubt that this is very popular in home 
environments.
