As described here, if the channel is allowed to float then the radio will intermittently lose connection to Wi-Fi and require rebooting to restore functionality. - The two devices that work are UE Radios "downgraded" to work like Squeezebox Radios.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Lost wifi connection and unable to reconnect ?
Try some very basic WiFi tweaks (1-5 require admin access to your router to try these simple changes) simple troubleshooting: 1. use a unique SSID name (name of your network/router) 2. if using a G WiFi: set WiFi to G only (turns off a b modes) 3. if using an N WiFi: set to G Compatibility mode (if using G devices) 4. change the broadcast channel to the least used channel near you 5. choose only channels 1 or 6 or 11 (or 13 if available) 6. router and WiFi antenna orientation adjustments can help signal strength 7. keep router away from other electronic devices (cordless phones, ISP modem, computers) 8. reboot WiFi router every once in a while (once a month is usually sufficient) If your WiFi network card software already gives the ch numbers and the signal strength of all nearby networks, that's all you need.

Having to Cycle the Power or Restarting the Internet Radio Stream once a Week, rather than once every morning (as it was with WPA/TKIP and WPA2/AES Encryptions), we might find Acceptable??? Therefore I will keep the Old D-Link Wireless-G Router configured with 128-Bit WEP Encryption and have the Squeezebox's MAC Address entered as the ONLY WiFi Client Allowed...

After pulling my Old D-Link Wireless Router out of Moth Balls and configuring it for NO Encryption and MAC Address Filtering, I have had two Morning Powerups where the Internet Radio has continued to Stream past my Critical 1-Hour Window!!! Reasons the Old WBR-1310 was retired included Poor Wireless Stability when using WPA/WPA2 Encryption and being Limited to ONLY 10 MAC Addresses for the Filtering... Understanding that MAC Addresses can be Spoofed this would NOT be sufficient Protection for an Access Point in the City, although I might concider using this Workaround at the Cottage in the Country where the Nearest Neighbor is quite far away??? Plus I would use the WBR-1310 ONLY for the Squeezebox Internet Radio Streaming, leaving all other Wired and Wireless Devices on the Main DSL Modem where WPA2/AES is required for WiFi Access... In the Future my Morning Tests will have WEP Added to the MAC Address Filtering, although with WEP also being Crackable it would give the Script Kiddies a Second Layer to Hack through???

I ran for a couple years with the radio wirelessly using Mac Address filtering as my security method. I moved into a new house and decided to setup WPA2. I started to experience a lot of what you guys are mentioning. I remove WPA2 security and went back to MAC address filtering and so far so good.

I believe that with 7.6+ a red icon is also used if the Squeezebox server is unavailable, so it is worth checking when you have a red icon whether it is really the Wifi that is down or connection to the server (use advanced diagnostics to check the wireless connection). Either way there is a problem to fix, but best to know for sure what the problem is. -- Davidg1 Davidg1's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35004 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86061 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Lost wifi connection and unable to reconnect ?
On one occasion while the Icon was still Red I had the WiFi Diagnosis Report there was No Link... There were other indications where the Squeezebox was telling me the Wireless AP was NO Longer Available (even though from other Wireless Clients I knew the WIreless AP was still Available), although presently I am NOT sure what I was doing at that time to get that Message??? The Firmware was Upgraded to 7.6.1 shortly after being purchased, although I seem to remember before with its Factory Firmware the Squeezebox Radio was displaying something slightly different when it was claiming the Wireless AP was NO longer Available... Lastly I am using the Squeezebox Radio as a Standalone Unit, I do NOT have the Squeezebox Server running elsewhere on the LANs (if that makes any Difference to this Wireless AP/Red Icon Issue)??? -- LHoust LHoust's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=50020 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86061 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Lost wifi connection and unable to reconnect ?
This morning while watching the Wireless Info Screen the Wireless Signal dropped from its Normal Range of 80-90% down to 0%, then on re-entering the Wireless Info Screen the Squeezebox Radio reported Not connected. It was actually on the Network Health Screen where the Squeezebox Radio reported Wireless - no link!!! The Icon had remained Red for a fairly short period of time (maybe 1 - 2 Minutes) before reconnecting itself to the Wireless AP (Icon returned to being White with all of its Bars), although by then the Internet Radio Stream had already Stopped Playing and the Play Button had to pressed for the Stream to Continue Playing... The Exact Firmware Version is 7.6.1r9482 and the Hardware Version is 5. At home I normally only get only one of these Internet Radio Stream Interruption/Red Icon Events each morning shortly after the Unit has been turned on after being turned off over night, so I will probably not see another Red Icon Event until tomorrow morning when the Squeezebox Radio is turned back on??? By Initial Warm Up Period I mean the Black Case above the Squeezebox Radio's LCD Display Screen is NOT really Warm or Cold to the Touch, although the rest of the Black Case feels Cool to the Touch!!! -- LHoust LHoust's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=50020 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86061 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Lost wifi connection and unable to reconnect ?
I am experiencing a similar problem after my New Unit has been turned off overnight, within the first 30 - 60 Minutes the Squeezebox Radio can claim there is NO WiFi Signal and WiFi Icon has turned Red (Status reports No Link) and of course the Radio Stream has stopped playing (even though other WiFi Devices have NOT reported any Wireless Outage)!!! Typically occurs at least once each morning, possibly more times within that Initial 30 - 60 Minute Warm Up Period, after which the Internet Radio Stream can run uninterrupted all the way through the following night??? Although Single WiFi Outages can occur at home, with Cooler Mornings at the Cottage Multiple WiFi Outages can occur with that Warm Up Period!!! Compounded by the fact there are no Cordless Phones or other Wireless APs within Range (or even other Wireless Clients) at the Cottage (ie. the Country is a much Clean Wireless Environment that the City)??? After few minutes the Squeezebox Radio might find the Lost WiFi Source (the WiFi Icon having returned to being White, with all of its Strength Bars) on its own, at which time the Internet Radio Stream can be restarted by simply pressing the Play Button... Otherwise after turning the Unit off and back on the Squeezebox Radio might be able to find its Lost WiFi Source or it might NOT??? -- LHoust LHoust's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=50020 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86061 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Looks like there are more wireless signals conflicting with each other. You could try to fix your wireless router to broadcast on a fixed channel.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Lost wifi connection and unable to reconnect ?
I'm experiencing similar flakiness on the network front - this with a brand new (open-box) Radio, where the first week was general bliss. The 7.6 upgrade, combined with the pre-Lion upgrades on my mac mini server, have created a number of moving parts. Current experience is that the radio has the red wifi indicator, and I can see my network just fine, with apparently good signal, but it just won't connect. Frustrated, I walk away. Hours later, it's showing my flickr screensaver (!) and it will play music if tested.

By chance is your SSID (name of your WiFi) hidden? If yes, try disabling that on the router, set it to YES: BROADCAST SSID.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Lost wifi connection and unable to reconnect ?
Just an update regarding this, I changed the WiFi channel on the router
from 11 to 2 and now it has worked perfectly for several days in a row.
I'm not convinced it's solved but it looks very promising.
Maybe the WiFi circuits on the Radio is more sensitive to disturbances
then other WiFi devices I have and that's the reason why I only saw
problems with the Radio.

The Radio has intermittent support for channel 13 14 (-literally-

occasionally use 13, this would cause your problem. There is a
resolution if this is your issue.
Thanks for the tips but I'm using channel 11 on the router so I don't
think this is the problem.

I don't think it's the laptop because I switched off the wifi circuits
on the laptop this morning and I'm still getting the same issue.
Nothing in the router log that indicates that it did a DHCP renewal but
it might of course fail before it gets to the router.
However, I'm starting to think it's something with the network because
this morning it failed to reconnect after restart also. At that time I
tried to move it really close to the router and it was still not able
to reconnect after a restart. It's just strange that all other WiFi
devices works perfectly the only device I've seen problems with is the
Radio. Maybe something is wrong with the WiFi circuits in my Radio.
I'm using 7.6 firmware at the moment so possibly it could have
something to do with that, but I've had these problem earlier with 7.5
also, just not every morning as it seems to be at the moment.

Couldn't see anything in the router logs but I'll take a closer look
next time it happens. I've mostly seen it when an alarm has been
playing on the Radio but that might just be because the Radio is in the
bedroom and mostly used as an alarm clock.

Hiya Erland, Any chance of isolating the laptop away from the Radio to see if it is somehow interfering? Maybe try not using the alarm on Radio for a few days? Dunno what else I can suggest. My Radio streams 24/7 via WiFi and never shows a red or blue icon. It will stop streaming a station after a long while, but never loses connection to server or router, at least it does not indicate so by the icon color. I do use two cordless phones (5.8 ghz and 2.4 ghz) and occasional WiFi laptop use right next to the Radio, it just doesn't disconnect (yet).

Probably not the issue, but can you set a static IP address for the radio. This will exclude any DHCP issues. I have only one WIFI connected player and it is a RADIO with about 75% WIFI strength. It is synched to my other players, and like Toby10, it never loses connection for months at a time, although I also don't use alarms on it. -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86061 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Press hold the Power button to reboot the Radio, battery or not.
I'm getting back to this as the problem happens now and then in my
setup, way to often to be acceptable.
WiFi icon is red when it looses the connection.
There is a laptop nearby which have working wifi, not sure if it could
cause disturbances ?
The strange thing is that the Radio is always able to reconnect if I
press and hold the power button and reboots it, but it never seems to
be able to reconnect without doing this.
Does the re-connection logic after lost WiFi connection work for
everyone else ?
After rebooting Settings/Advanced/Diagnostics/Wireless info displays
Wireless signal = 100%. After it fails, it doesn't display any wireless
signal because then it isn't connected to the WiFi.
I've never seen any connection problem on the laptop which is at the
same place as the Radio and uses the same Wifi network.
