Re: [slim] Squeezebox shuts down on reboot
Hi, Thanks again for your help, but restarting Slimserver from the server doesn't solve the problem.

Re: [slim] Squeezebox shuts down on reboot
On 29-Apr-07, at 9:09 AM, fredila wrote: Why does Squeezebox shut down every time I reboot? The Squeezebox is a dumb client. Everything, right down to each letter of text is sent from the server. Reboot the PC, shuts off the slimserver application so the squeezebox goes blank. It's a problem for me because the box is located about 150 feet from my pc. I've got to get up, walk to the Squeezebox and restart it with the remote. When slimserver starts back up, the squeezebox should reconnect. I tend to restart the server many times in an evening and no other interaction is required for the squeezebox to start back up. Some users have reported having a problem with this, and the issue is being investigated: http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3778 -kdf ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Squeezebox shuts down on reboot
Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, I guess I'm one of those users whose system does not reconnect when I reboot.

Fred that's strange, they always wake and say trying to connect if the slimserver is down and I press the remote power buttons. I never have to power cycle squeezeboxes when the server goes away. What slimserver version are you using? How is the PC connected to the network? How is the squeezebox connected? -- SuperQ SuperQ's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2139 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34873 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Squeezebox shuts down on reboot
I'm using 6.5.1 I'm on a desktop that sends a hard wired signal from my DSL wired router to a repeater in another room. The repeater sends a wireless signal to the Squeezebox. Hope that helps. Thanks for the input.

That would be consistent with the bug that many people have reported. Since the Squeezebox display goes blank when not connected to a server, and usually remains blank with this bug, then it may just _appear_ to be completely off when it is in fact fumbling around in the dark trying to the reconnect to the server. Repowering with the remote is a workaround that works for many people. I'm not trying to suggest that the workaround is at all convenient, but until the bug is fixed there's not much choice. -- JJZolx Jim JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34873 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

It might help if it were possible to disable DHCP/NAT and run the device in a bridge only mode. I guess I'd have to know exactly what devices you have, and exactly what ports are pluged into what. -- SuperQ SuperQ's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2139 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34873 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Squeezebox shuts down on reboot
Hi SuperQ, It's a Linksys Etherfast Cable/DSL router. The items attached to it include the DSL box, a print server and a connection to the cat5 line that feeds the remote repeater.

By the way, I didn't have this problem until I installed Slimserver 6.5.

Re: [slim] Squeezebox shuts down on reboot
fredila;198439 Wrote: By the way, I didn't have this problem until I installed Slimserver 6.5. Yep. Another workaround that may work for you is to restart SlimServer itself on the server. Could keep you from having to get out the remote and walking 150 feet to the SB. This used to work for me, but it would sometimes take two, three, four tries. Wait at least 20-30 seconds between retries and watch for the Squeezebox to show up in the web interface. -- JJZolx Jim JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34873 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
