 Sorry if this has been asked before, but, will the Touch's IR Remote
 work with the Radio.  If so, will it also support text input just like
 on the Touch (e.g., quick scrolling to the first letter of the
 album/artist, entering wireless key, etc.)?

Yes  :)

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] can't connect to open wifi network

2010-10-29 Thread plzdontspamme

I tried spoofing the MAC address of the squeezebox but had no success
getting onto the network using it.  Could I get the squeezebox to spoof
my computer's MAC address?  I tried adding the following lines to
/etc/network/udhcpc_action: 

# original radio MAC   

#/sbin/ifconfig $interface hw ether ##:##:##:##:##:##
# my laptop   
/sbin/ifconfig $interface hw ether ##:##:##:##:##:##

just before this line:

/sbin/ifconfig $interface $ip $BROADCAST $NETMASK 

but it does not seem to accept it.  When I reboot, it defaults to the
factory MAC address.

Which player model?
Is your routers name (SSID) unique to your router?  i.e.  Not simply
Linksys or DLink?
Are you certain the passphrase is correct?  No spaces (particularly at
the end)?

It's a Squeezebox radio, my reuter name is unique and password is deft
correct because it just worked but then it lost signal again after just
2 songs.

Could it be to do with interference from other wifi stuff like my phone
and my laptop

This could be because you solved the interference problem OR in the
other room you get a stronger WIFI signal. I'm not at home, but you can
drill down into one of the menus to actually see the WIFI signal
strength your TOUCH is reporting. Check it in both locations. It may be
that is the problem. You can maybe fix this by even changing the
location of your router by only a few inches (turn sideways, etc.)

You might also want to check the wifi channels being used by neighbors
and set your channel as far away as possible.  Use netstumbler or
vistumbler to see other networks nearby and the channels they are
using.

I did some expriementing, took my phone in the other room and within
seconds squzzebox lost it's signal, took the squeezebox back into the
room wihout the phone and it worked fine brought phone back in went
down again, think the laptop is also causing issues so basically being
near any other wi fi enabled thing is causing the signal to go

This is not generally a problem for most users, but it certainly sounds
like it is for you. I suppose as long as you can set things up so that
the touch is not near the phone (that should be easy) or laptop, you
should be ok.

is your router a b, g, or n. if you can use g only (no b on the
network), this *may* be better. Some have reported this.

Same here.  Just got to the 8th day without a reboot!  Radio and the

[SlimDevices: Radio] Love it!

2010-10-29 Thread rpress

I just bought myself a birthday gift, the Squeezebox Radio.  It's
fantastic!  The speaker sound is impressive for such a small device and
the audio jack sounds wonderful with my Sennheiser headphones, albeit a
little more drive would be nice.

I have long used the Squeezebox server; I've had some old Rios running
SlimRio, Roku, SqueezePlay, etc.  Currently my server is far away and I
access it over VPN, this is flawless as well.

I made up a battery with some spare parts and it's a lot of fun to take
it around the house.

Squeeze Commander works great on my Android phone although I think I
would prefer if SqueezePlay ran on the phone too.  If there was a 7MC
frontend for SqueezePlay I would be in heaven.

Great job guys!

My Radio has unusually good wireless signal.  I took it to the far end
of the house where my laptop loses signal and it just keeps on working.
My cell phone was next to it and it still worked fine.

I'm using all N devices which are known to have a better range than G
or B.  Maybe you could get a better router?  I have seen some 802.11n
routers for as low as $20.

yes, some routers are certainly better than others, and they are very
cheap these days.  Your radio (in fact all SB players) are g devices.
I personally have a fairly new n router which does work better than my
older b/g router.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] help needed

2010-10-29 Thread Siduhe

What kind of phone is it? 

Mobile/cell - in which case does your phone have a always or sometimes
on wifi connection?

or 

Home phone - in which case is it a wireless/cordless DECT type?

Although wireless interference is a definite possibility, if it's a
mobile causing the problems it might also be an IP conflict. If your
Touch and your phone/laptop have the same IP address - one can force
the other off the network.

That said, my bet would be on your signal strength or interference from
other local networks on a similar wireless channel.
