That's it! That's the exact card. Too bad I just spent $20 for 75' of cat-5E and pulled it under my floor. For $17 though... I'll order one of those cards up and try it out. FYI: You need a size 8 and size 9 torx driver to open the SB3 up and get to the guts. Thanks! -- fezco

OK, I swapped out power supplies with another (thank you CH surplus -Duarte). Unfortunately the wireless card no longer works. I tried the wired and it connected fine. So what are my options for the wireless card? Are there some diagnostics that I can run? If not, I'll suck it up and crawl under

I don't know if you've tried this, but maybe open-up the box, and make sure the wireless card is properly seated. -- tcutting tcutting's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17402 View this thread:

I woke up yesterday with my SB3 completely dead. I tested the voltage from my power supply and it was 3V. I think over time my power supply dropped from the 4.8 down to 3 and eventually killed my SB3. My question now is, do I get a Duet or a Classic? I'm using a Lavry DA10 for my DAC. Either

I increased the supply voltage back to 5 with no luck. I'll try to find the old original power supply and give that a try. -- fezco fezco's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3855 View this thread:

There is also the new rumored squeezebox classic style with a color screen. I don't remember what kind of regulators are inside the squeezebox, but it's possible over-amperage at a lower voltage damaged the internal regulators. Please let us know if the original PSU works. -- SuperQ

If the old PSU doesn't work, get a Classic. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal... SB3 (wired) - TACT 2.2X (Linear PSU) + Good Vibrations S/W - MF Triplethreat(Audiocom full mods) - Linn 5103 - Aktiv 5.1 system (6x
