Sorry - didn't see your post - had left the editor up whilst compiling
info.
The issue had resurfaced again after moving the radio back to it's
original location and rebooting, which led me to try and see how I could
verify if the wlan was actually stopped. Thanks again!

Problem is definitely the wlan.
Still not certain whether it's a WiFi 6/interference issue, or an actual
hardware failure though.
Regardless, as of right now, the radio is set up exactly how I had it
before (albeit with wired Ethernet), and it's been running for 10+ hours
without issue.

The problem was that the method I was using for disabling wlan on bootup
did not work for me.
As per
https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?109953-WiFi-connection-unstable-lost-on-three-Radios&p=1053624&viewfull=1#post1053624
I added an rcS.local file with the following:

/usr/etc/logger -s "Stopping wlan; disabling wifi" 
/etc/init.d/wlan stop

However, after startup, sending /etc/init.d/wlan stop resulted in:

root: wlan: stopping
..unloading all
killall: recEvent: no process killed
root: wlan stopped

This indicated wlan had not actually stopped after boot.
It should look like this if already stopped:

root: wlan: stopping
killall: wpa_cli: no process killed
killall: wpa_supplicant: no process killed
..unloading all
rmmod: can't unload 'ar6000': unknown symbol in module, or unknown
parameter
killall: recEvent: no process killed
root: wlan stopped

I then removed the rcS.local file I added previously, opened the rcS
file, and commented out the following line as shown:

#/etc/init.d/wlan start

Rebooted again, verified wlan was not running, and the radio has been up
and running with the IOGEAR WiFi bridge since.
I'm leaving it at that for now.

Many thanks to @POMdev and @mrw for the assist!

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

2022-10-13 Thread rdeckard


I needed to step away from this for a bit, so I waited until this
morning to check again.
Surprisingly, the Radio is still behaving normally right now, after
having been up since late yesterday afternoon.
Previous order of business:

- Connected wired Ethernet
- Factory restored
- Let it connect to LAN/MSB/LMS
- Disabled wlan via SSH

I was still on stock firmware before I walked away from it yesterday,
but it seems the radio automatically updated to the Community
firmware...???
Have not changed any settings whatsoever yet.

This is very similar to what I had already tried, so not quite sure
what's different yet.

Also, not certain if this matters, but I did remove the battery before
the last round, thinking it might be good to let the radio completely
power down.
I reinserted the battery this morning, so we'll see if that has any
bearing.

I'm going to go back to the way things were before, one step at a time
(WiFi bridge > wait > set static IP > start setting radio UI back to how
I had it, etc.) and see if/when it falls over again.

The key thing here seems to be disabling wlan, but possibly requiring
stock firmware when doing so?

Here is another top after rebooting and immediately disabling wlan:

Terminal output when disabling wlan:

# /etc/init.d/wlan stop
root: wlan: stopping
..unloading all
killall: recEvent: no process killed
root: wlan stopped

(Almost seems like nothing was done?)

As expected, working perfectly for the moment.
Stepping out to walk the doggo.
Will check again when I return.

Not sure it's worth the trouble...
Factory-restored again.
Left it with stock firmware.
Wired Ethernet connection only.
"Connected to Ethernet" with DHCP IP.
Radio is previously registered to me on mysqueezebox.com, so let it
continue with that account when prompted, and it immediately came online
and connected to my local LMS server.
No other settings touched.
Went to lunch.
Came back less than an hour later, and it was already in the
sluggish/unresponsive state.
This is literally a new, out-of-the-box scenario, and I'm having the
same problem.

Hi POMdev. Appreciate the insight.

Have results from commands specified, as well as the messages file.
38873
38872
Memory and CPU usage appear OK, but seeing lots of link up/down
notices.
Otherwise, not exactly sure what I'm looking for.

Will factory restore again, and leave it on stock firmware.

Hi mrw - thanks for the reply.
Not even playing anything at the time of failure, just letting it sit.
I even eliminated the WiFi bridge, and just have it directly connected
to a switch now.
It's currently in the state where every button press/action is taking up
to 10-15s to execute again.
Seems I can still SSH into it though, so will try to grab logs now.

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

2022-10-12 Thread rdeckard


Don't mean to spam the thread, but I'm just about out of ideas.

Disabling WiFi changed nothing.
I ultimately performed the factory restore, and updated to Community
firmware. Nothing else.
Put back the IOGEAR WiFi bridge, let the Radio pull a DHCP IP, and all
was OK for the day, but by last night, it had become
sluggish/unresponsive again.
Reboot brought it back.

Removed WiFi bridge, attempted Wireless connection. Connected, found
library, then icon went blue within 5 minutes.
When attempting to reconnect, it will only find the AP to which it was
previously connected, but will not connect. Icon turns red.
Reboot brings it back.

This is looking less like a WiFi/Ethernet issue, and more like an actual
hardware failure now.

A Touch, Controller, Duet, and Boom on the same network are all 100% OK
during all of this.
No IP conflicts anywhere.

Could this be due to a bad power supply?
What's the best way to retrieve logs from the Radio?

Ready to pull the trigger on one of the many used Radios up on eBay.
Any other suggestions would be most appreciated.

Sadly, new issues have now surfaced with the wired connection.
It will stay up for most of a day, but the last 2 nights, whilst still
pingable and seen by LMS, the radio gets into a sluggish/unresponsive
state, and requires a reboot.

First thing I noticed when I walked into the room and turned on the
light, the radio display remained dark, when it usually would have gone
bright from the auto-brightness feature.
After about 10-20s, it did get brighter, but from there, every button
press took about 5-10s to actually respond, making the radio unusable,
and only a reboot resolved it.

Could it just be that I need to factory restore it after all the
troubleshooting/tweaking I've been doing over the past week or so?
If I do that, will I have to deal with reloading the Community firmware
again?

I'm in the same boat.
Not that I'm close to you, but the onset of the problem was within the
same timeframe, and I'm in Westchester County just north of NYC.
It got to the point where I was spending way too much time
troubleshooting this, so ultimately added an Ethernet > WiFi bridge to
the wired Ethernet port on the Radio.

My town installed wireless water and gas meters in everyone's houses
(including my own) over the past few years, which presumably form a mesh
network, making it easier for them to pull readings without entry to the
house, but this has been in place for some time now, and I didn't notice
any subsequent issues.
New 5G towers maybe? Supposedly shouldn't cause interference with
2.4/5GHz, but who knows.
Otherwise, I can't imagine everyone's neighbor ran out and got a WiFi 6
router over the past month.

Sure, I'm aware of that. I have other Squeezeboxes which are currently

Anything to look out for when using the Radio's wired Ethernet port?
Does using wired automatically disable WiFi in the Radio?
If not, should it be disabled?
If so, I don't recall seeing an option to disable it in the Radio menu.

2022-10-06 Thread rdeckard


Never had this problem before, but it has now surfaced on my bedside
Radio this week, which is running community firmware.
WiFi icon will turn blue, then if I try to reconnect to WiFi, sometimes
it will, but still can't see the server.
Other times it just goes red, and no amount of futzing will get it back
online. Only a reboot will recover the connection.
After a reboot, if left alone, the Radio will stay connected for only ~5
minutes.
If I am playing anything, the connection appears to stays up
indefinitely.

Radio WiFi IP was set static via SSH years ago.
Have an older Asus router with no WiFi 6. Possibly a neighbor recently
upgraded theirs.
I saw another thread about a patch for the Radio, and potentially having
to rollback LMS to apply it, but I have no idea how to verify if the
patch is applied.
Installed wlanpoke as per instructions here. No change.

I don't need the radio to be portable, but don't have a nearby wired
network drop, so I ordered an IO Gear Etherent > WiFi adapter (read they
were slightly better than Vonets, but I like the idea of passing power
through the Vonet to the Radio, so we'll see).
However, I'm now reading that there have been issues with wired as
well...???
I'm deep in the Squeezebox ecosystem for close to 20 years, and am not
about bail now.
Will the patch mentioned above help? I can't find the info about it
again to save my life atm.

Appreciate you taking the time to check. I'm also up-to-date on
firmware.
Sorry, but I'm not familiar with the Material skin - assuming you mean
hitting stop right on the Touch display.
I use the Touch in my living room, but it's in a cabinet atm, so not
using the screen and can't hit it with the remote (hence Controller +
Crestron).
There are nights I fall asleep on the couch listening to music, so I
figured why not use the alarm same as the Radio in my bedroom ;-)
I take it if you hit Pause on the Touch remote, it clears the alarm for
you too then?
Maybe you could also check your server web UI to see if it shows your
Touch playing anything at that time as well.
If this is in fact a bug, I'm thinking it likely won't be addressed, at
least any time soon, so will have to send a power off to kill it for
now.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 'Default' alarm sound?

2020-09-17 Thread rdeckard


No luck. I changed the Stop/Pause CLI commands for the Touch to use the
IR-Emulation codes - same result.
It seems trying to stop the alarm by any other means than Pause on the
Touch remote or Powering off the Touch puts it into this state where,
the alarm keeps going off every minute after hitting Pause or Stop via
CLI, and the only time it works is the first time.
Even more strange, I am still using the Duet Controller with the Touch,
and same issue occurs if I hit the Pause button on the Controller.
I have not tried stopping the alarm on the Radio via CLI, but wondering
it I get the same results on that player as well.
Play/Pause/Stop, etc. work normally otherwise when playing Favorites,
Internet Radio or files from my library.
Can anyone shed some light on what might be happening and potentially
how to resolve?

Hi and thank you for the reply. Good point. I am controlling it via a
Crestron system with a module that uses CLI.
I can take a look at exactly what it's sending, but just confused why it
would work any differently than before with the Duet.
Aside from pointing the control module to a different Player ID/MAC in
code, nothing else has changed.
I will have to try with the IR remote and see if the behavior changes.
That said, since you got me thinking, I don't actually hit "Stop" on the
Radio, I hit the power button on the remote or the Radio itself to stop
the alarm.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 'Default' alarm sound?

2020-08-28 Thread rdeckard


Problem persists after updating. Again, this never happened on my Duet,
nor does it happen on my Radio, only the Touch.
Is hitting stop actually performing a Snooze instead of stop?
Even so, doesn't explain why it starts playing the default alarm again
shortly after.
What's even more strange is that if I start playing something else, then
stop, the default alarm will eventually start playing again.
Any help would be appreciated.

Apologies for digging up an old thread, but I am experiencing something
similar since recently switching from a Duet to a Touch.
I have 2 alarms set on the Touch, an hour apart.

They are both set to use a Favorite, which is a generic alarm 'beep
beep' sound.
I have yet to go in and change the default alarm sound in the Touch via
SSH to be the same, but plan on doing so like I had with the Duet, so
the Datarock clip is still there for now.

I've only had the Touch installed a few weeks. Not sure if this has been
happening all along, but this week I've noticed that after the 2nd alarm
plays and I stop it, the default Datarock clip starts playing shortly
after.
It also plays at a much lower volume than the programmed alarms
(assuming this has something to do with the fact that I still had the
volume set to "Volume controls adjust outputs" in Player > Audio
settings - Just now changed it to fixed at 100%).
While this is happening, the Touch screen shows the clock with
Stop/Snooze buttons, but the Server says nothing is playing on that
player.
The only way I'm able to get it to stop is to hit the power button on
the Touch.
All that said, it almost seems like the Touch has lost connection to the
server, even though the server shows everything is online and working
normally, plus I can still start playing something else on the Touch at
this time.

I noticed an LMS update was available today, so now running Logitech
Media Server Version: 7.9.3 - 1597753178 @ Sun Aug 23 19:15:28 WEDT
2020.
In the meantime, can anyone explain why this is happening and/or what
causes it? I've never experienced this with any Squeezebox player
before.

Thanks!
