[SlimDevices: Radio] Help needed with Radio interface settings
(Just received new Radio ... setting up!) Help needed with Radio interface settings: On the Touch when a stream is playing I can go back to the Home menu (mess about, etc). After a few moments of inactivity by me, then the screen switches back to Now Playing screen. On the Radio, if I go to Home when a stream is playing, the menu stays stuck at the Home. Is there a way to get a return to Now Playing (automatically) - I see there is a menu item which returns to Now Playing. But, can it return automagically after a time period? -- castalla 1 Touch - Muse M50 EX TPA3123 T-Amp Mini - Acoustics Q10 speakers - 2 duff ears - purrfekt! castalla's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15624 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92011 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Help needed with Radio interface settings
Just went through all the settings the other day. It is under settings Screen screensavers delay. Also make sure you have the when playing screensaver set to something other than none. PS: when you don't want to wait for the screensaver delay, hitting home again will return you to now playing. -- MeSue SUE 1 Duet | 2 Booms | 1 Radio | 1 Touch | 1 SB2 HP MediaSmart EX470 | Logitech Media Server 7.7.1 | iPod Touch iPad w/ iPeng Find me on 'Last.FM' (http://www.last.fm/user/MeSue) | 'Twitter' (http://twitter.com/suechastain) | 'Rhapsody' (http://www.rhapsody.com/members/mesue) MeSue's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=985 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92011 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

OoooH thanks muchly! Now, to sort out the favourites (Touch vs Radio vs mysb).

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] help needed
Still having a couple of problems like sometimes it won't connect to a song, guess that could be to do with my internet service being weird, when it does loes signal I have to shut it down and restart to connect to my wifi again which is very annoying -- girl_from_oz girl_from_oz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41227 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82945 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

And did you ever use netstumbler or Vistumbler to detect nearby wifi networks and the channels they are using so you can set yours far way as possible? i suspect low wifi signal. just because it works well for a laptop in the same room doesn't mean it is strong enough for SB player. they don't have as good antennas and are more picky about a strong signal.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] help needed
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)? -- toby10 toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82945 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] help needed
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.

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. -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82945 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] help needed
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 -- girl_from_oz girl_from_oz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41227 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82945 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] help needed
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. -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82945 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] help needed

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] help needed
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. -- rpress rpress's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31544 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82945 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

I personally have a fairly new n router which does work better than my older b/g router. -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82945 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] help needed
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. -- Siduhe Who am I on 'LAST.FM' (http://www.last.fm/user/siduhe)? -Siduhe Loved Tracks radio got the thumbs up.
