Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] WPA / WPA Enterprise support?
WPA2 support exists for the PSK variant (password) but certainly not for Enterprise. you would have to use a WiFi-to-Ethernet bridge capable of WPA2-Enterprise, and connect the Radio to it via Ethernet. Even then the outcome is not clear. if it's a company network, isn't there a guest SSID that you could use and that is less protected?

You will need a spudger or a guitar pick, a TX7 screwdriver, TX10 if you want to get to the speakers, and a PH1 (Phillips) if you want to access the PCB's front side - the speaker grille is held by four plastic noses, one in each corner, which plug into the front - insert the spudger's edge between the fabric and the surrounding edge in any of the three sides of the speaker grille that do not go towards the display - near the edge, use the spudger to loosen the plug connection carefully. If need be, just lever it out a bit, not entirely, and continue with the next corner, doing multiple rounds until the grille is free - you will see two silver TX7 screws in the middle of the front panel which hold down the clear plastic of the right half. Loosen both - once the screws are out, push the right front panel half about 1-2 millimeters to the left. Subtle force is required here. You should see the headphone connector move in. It is what holds the assembly. Once the front panel is far enough to the left, you will be able to pull it out. You will find two cables attached, one going to the speaker (4 wires) and one towards the power jack (2 wires) - if you need to go any further from here, e.g. separate the PCB from the case completely, unplug both connectors - *for full PCB access: *the PCB is bolted to the front panel with 8 or 9 smaller PH1 screws. If you undo all of them, and pull the knobs of the main rotary knob and the volume knob, the PCB should be free by now. Take care as the buttons, especially the ones for the presets 1..6 will easily fall out of the front panel, and so do the rubber/carbon coated mattes between the PCB and the buttons. Be sure not to lose anything, and remember how everything was placed so you can properly reassemble later - *in case you need to access the speakers*, you will find 6 TX10 screws deep down in the black plastic insert of the front panel, four in each corner, and two more in the top and bottom center. Undo these so you can pull the insert out and access the speakers which are mounted to it That should do it. If you have any problems, please post them here with photos describing the issue(s). Good luck! PN me if your Boom / Classic / Transporter display has issues!

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Squeezebox Radio Keeps Disconnecting from Wifi - Possibly failing wifi card?
The SB radio does not have a dedicated Wi-Fi board. Like the Touch and unlike previous models, the Wi-Fi chip is soldered to the radio's main board. I have one here that won't connect wirelessly at all whereas all other functionality is fine. The chip is not easily replaced, I think it might even be a BGA soldered chip which leaves it to high experts and gurus to replace successfully. Sorry man but it's probably not coming back. You might help yourself with an external Wi-Fi to Ethernet bridge because that will probably keep working. If you actually want to open the Radio, I can give you some instructions. Chances are very very slim though that this gets you anywhere. Cheers Joe Gesendet von meinem STK-LX1 mit Tapatalk PN me if your Boom / Classic / Transporter display has issues!

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] will a Logitech universal remote work with our Squeezeboxs?
Hi there, as far as I'm aware you can use just any Squeezebox remote control with any Squeezebox model. They all share the same infrared codes and are only differentiated by the amount of buttons. I can safely confirm that a numeric keypad is offered on the remote controls for SB Classic (SB2 and SB3), SB Touch, Transporter. Usually, the universal Logitech Harmony remote control models support the infrared codes for Squeezeboxes, too. Cheers, Joe PN me if your Boom / Classic / Transporter display has issues!

[SlimDevices: Radio] Battery Compartment Mxstery
Hi all, in the course of a recent RepairCafé UE Radio repair, I found heavy corrosion in the battery compartment that happened because the Radio was forgotten outside and ended up in a puddle of water after a rainy night. I found an interesting extra bit of circuitry that also exists in my own Radio. It is so odd that I would like to share it here. Maybe someone has an idea what all this is good for. Apparently, there are Radio models that do not have this extra circuitry which makes me wonder even more why the effort. After unscrewing the battery compartment door of my UE Smart Radio, this is what I have on the inside of the door: [image: https://jf-it-services.de/public/slimdevices/radio/cover1.jpg] [image: https://jf-it-services.de/public/slimdevices/radio/cover2.jpg] So there's a 10-pin contact header at the end of the small (5-wire) cable which is supposed to go into the device's battery jack here: [image: https://jf-it-services.de/public/slimdevices/radio/dev_contact.jpg] And the battery is then supposed to be plugged into the jack that is in the door, shown next: [image: https://jf-it-services.de/public/slimdevices/radio/cover3.jpg] Of course, I was curious about what is happening here as the battery could be connected to the device right away, having the correct form, keying, and pinout of the connector. So why this diversion? So let's undo the two PH1 screws which are near the strain relief of the wires: [image: https://jf-it-services.de/public/slimdevices/radio/cover_inside1.jpg] Hmm, so the black and white wires are directly soldered to the board apparently whereas the other three are routed differently. In the bottom left of the flipped-around module, a PH0 screw needs to be removed in order to release the PCB. What I found then is so inexplicably cumbersome: the red, brown, and cyan wires go to gold-plated pads on a very small separate PCB inside the housing. From there, three spring contacts on the other (larger) board connect them to the 10-pin jack. But the craziest thing for me is that there is no change in the final pinout. Pin 1 of the plug on one end is pin 1 on the jack at the other end. It's basically just a small 1:1 extension cord. [image: https://jf-it-services.de/public/slimdevices/radio/cover_inside3.jpg] The spring contacts are what failed in the patient that I had on the table in the RepairCafé. As a result, one of the spring contacts was completely gone due to corrosion, and the Radio indicated a broken battery and would not charge any longer, not even a brand-new after market (not original) battery that the owner bought under the assumption that it's just an aged battery that caused the issues. Sorry I have not taken a better picture but you'll get the idea: [image: https://jf-it-services.de/public/slimdevices/radio/corrosion.jpg] Luckily, this unit didn't blow up like many Radios apparently do by themselves, it still works fine on external power, and after removing all of this extra stuff, also works on both batteries, old and new. Which raises several questions: - why was this re-routing brought in at all? What's it good for? The battery could just as well be connected directly to the Radio battery port that is exposed in the compartment - how come they decided to connect two out of five wires directly to the target PCB, and route three of them across spring contacts on a separate mini PCB? - there's not a single component between both ends besides a variety of contacts. If a fuse was in there, or some sort of battery charge monitoring / protection, it would make a lot more sense - a lot of Radios do not have this extra circuitry at all - does it make a difference? It this an afterthought, and was more functionality actually planned to be implemented in this place? - humidity ingress will definitely do harm to the spring contacts sooner or later. This feels wrong as the Radio was designed to be carried around and also be placed outside, with a higher risk of exposure to water, cocktails or whatever - is this thing involved in the failure of Q3 and other components on the main board that so many Radios suffer from? Please consider this just a side conversation, it's nothing of any importance, just wondering. Maybe you Radio owners can take a look into your Radio's battery compartment to see whether this applies to your Radio as well. We might find out what the Radios with this special have in common otherwise. Just out of curiosity. Have a nice day! Cheers, Joe PN me if your Boom / Classic / Transporter display has issues!

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Squeezebox Radio - Inverted display
Well, it's not exactly about the Radio but I had the very same with the Squeezebox Controller today. My controller failed to stay connected for some days now so I decided to move its working display into another controller that I had in my spare box and whose display has failed years ago. So I connected the display to the spare controller, only to find the display is showing everything upside down, including the boot logo. This would not recover by firmware upgrade and factory reset. I then changed plans and connected the display back to the Controller that I have been using for years now. The vertical flip was gone. Then swapped the Wi-Fi daughter board with the spare unit, and, tada, the whole thing is back working. So it's probably not the display that causes the vertical flip but rather the board to which it is connected. No idea how that is caused though...

Note: running LMS 7.9.1 and firmware on Baby is 7.7.3 r16676 Sorry, didn't help. The 'Check Network' step just complains that no Ethernet connection is available. Basically I can't seem to get the device out of wired mode because I cannot successfully connect any WiFi network. So whenever I try, it fails, and the Radio stays in demand of a wired connection. After a reset to factory defaults, the process to set up the Radio cannot be completed far enough to get to the main menu. I have to either choose wired connection (and also attach a wire of course), or try to scan for WiFi connections which is the exact thing that fails with this device. So I cannot get out of that phase of the setup. Once I choose Ethernet, all the repair mechanisms care about is also the Ethernet connection apparently. As WiFi-to-Ethernet gateways are below 10 USD nowadays, that might be a way out. The downside is that another power supply is needed then. Portability is no longer a thing with this baby.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Dead WiFi on SB Radio
Hi all, does anybody know this? My Squeezebox Radio (bought on eBay as fully defective) refuses to do anything WiFi-related. It registers with Ethernet, no problem, it plays well, something appears to be wrong about WiFi though. Attempted factory and Xilinx resets, both to no avail. My observations so far: - switching to WiFi will immediately abort the scan for available networks (if it happens at all), and show that no networks could be found, although every WiFi other device is giving me 3 to 5 networks, two of which are my own. One access point is sitting less than one meter from the SBR - WiFi status info shows everything unset, and the WiFi symbol in the bottom right corner stays red all the time - entering valid WiFi information for the desired network ends in the SBR not being able to connect to it (takes ~ 30 seconds to find that out) If the WiFi chip in the Radio were defective, I would assume that the scan would still take a while to return without success, or the entire device crashing during hardware access to the WiFi chip. It seems more as if there is a driver issue and the SBR does not even attempt to make use of the WiFi hardware at all. There are no error codes being shown or anything else happening that points out anything unusual. I'm clueless.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Replace Radio screen
Okay, it's harder than i thought, sorry. The display does not show an evident model number or even manufacturer. The display module is glued into a plastic frame that covers its entire backside and most of the connector. I am afraid that digging into it will destroy something. Would be a shame as the display is fully functional. But what I found is that the Logitech G19 keyboard apparently uses the same display. So the cheapest way out might be acquiring one of them and extracting the LCD from it as described here: 'http://squeezeboxman.blogspot.de/2015/07/fixing-logitech-squeezebox-radio-white.html ' (http://squeezeboxman.blogspot.de/2015/07/fixing-logitech-squeezebox-radio-white.html) 1x Squezeebox Classic SB2 5x Squeezebox Classic SB3 (one waiting for repair) 7x Squeezebox Boom (two waiting for repair) 1x Transporter 1.5x Controller (one waiting for repair) 1.5x Touch (one waiting for repair) JoeMuc2009's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23131 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107874 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Replace Radio screen
Hi Philippe, sorry, missed your post until now. I will have a Radio here tomorrow and will check what model the display is. In the Squeezebox Controller I know it's an Evervision display that is no longer available or being manufactured. I spoke with one of their sales rep and it looks pretty hopeless. Also no data sheet so no chance to find anything else compatible. Another advantage of the beloved Noritake VFD displays... There might be a similar problem in the Radio, we'll see. If a line is white, it could also be a bad contact in the edge area of the display which could be resolved by applying a little more pressure there. You may want to try giving the display edges (the ones orthogonal to the white line) a gentle manual pressure and find out whether the line recovers. You will have to run the device open for this test of course. Not really a challenge for you, right?
