This is a very minor point, but a Local Area Network includes devices
connected by ethernet AND wifi. There's nothing wrong with using the
term "LAN" to refer only to the ethernet connections, but it may make
communication difficult at first. Now that that part is understood,
there should be no more problems. So I am not suggesting you change your
usage, just trying to explain why it was misunderstood.



LMS 8 nightly running on Raspberry Pi OS. Mostly virtual players,
occasionally with SB Radio, Boom or Classic.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Simplified instructions for Squeezebox Radio Wi-Fi fix (wlanpoke)

2021-09-14 Thread Tony T


I have a few radios.  One I carry outdoors (the others I use Vonnets),
so I finally got around to installing wlanpoke. Working well so far
(thanks POMdev)
I like logging, so I’m not disabling with -x.
I see the log file in /etc/log on the Radio, but I’m confused with
what’s described in the Manual:
“ The software will try to send messages to a logging server, by
default the computer running Logitech Media Server (LMS) on the default
port (1121).”

Is there supposed to be a log file for wlanpoke on my raspberry pi
running piCore?   If so, I don’t see it.

Thank you for sharing these scripts. I have two comments: 

- why using eth1? Isn't that the wired ethernet connection? I thought
that eth0 is the Wifi.
- I suggest using $(hostname) for hostname detection instead of fixing
it to "SqueezeboxRadio" when calling udhcpc. (I have multiple Radios
with different hostnames)



1x Squeezebox Classic, 3x Radio, 1x Touch, LMS 7.9.1 running on
ODROID-U3, Ubuntu 16.04 and I'm happy with it! :)

Sorry, I missed the point it was ethernet not wifi. Strange that two
Radios having the problem at the same time; probabky the reason I jumped
to the wifi as a problem.

If the power supply is the problem, then they both failed at the same
time?  Two power supplies or ethernet wires failing at the same time
seems unprobable.

Reboot router and the radios and see if that resolves the issue?  Is
there an ethernet switch common to the radios that might have failed?

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Lost LAN connection on two SB Radios

I agree with @sota748. Start with the power supply. The supplies are old
and can appear to "work", but under load may not deliver the needed
power. There are threads all over this forum where a new supply "fixed"
a weird issue

I have had this happen on radios, and especially receivers.

cheap fix to try first. Even if it doesn't fix this issue the you will
avoid the next issue caused by the power supply:)

No, as stated it my post it's LAN, not Wi-Fi. I don't use Wi-Fi for my

Thanks for your suggestion on Wi-Fi6. I keep that in mind.
