Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Lost wifi connection and unable to reconnect ?

2011-10-11 Thread earlofmott

ok sunday, after alot of imput from members on this forum, i changed the
channel on my router from 11 to 6. since then it has gone from turning
off every morning and a few times during the day occasionally, to
(fingers crossed) being sorted. no more lost connection. :-D i will
give it a week and post back again to update, but if all ok, thanks
guys

if i change the channel from 11 which do you recommend? also, will
changing the channel affect anything else (i have all sorts running
through my superhub i.e. smart tv,android phone ect..) and im not the
most technically gifted lol
firewall & ip flood detection are off :-)
i will try the other two recommendations if changing the channel doesnt
fix it, i get a bit nervous changing settings i dont understand :-s

also i add, im using windows xp so you can also rule out any mac issues
and i have had my pc turned off the last two mornings so you can also
rule out a problem with the squeezebox server on the pc. hope some of
this helps?

maybe a new firmware update is needed?

this is the exact same problem i am having since purchasing my
squeezebox. everything else in the house is working (connected) fine,
just this. red network icon, no connection. every morning. i dont use
the alarm so the alarm doesnt affect it, i have disabled upnp so that
has no affect either. every morning it is unable to work until i reset
the box. its driving me insane
