Wireless seems to be very dependent upon the router brand. I had nothing
but problems with SMC and am doing much better with D-Link. Check the

Be very careful about how you remove the tags. I seem to recall there's
a problem with iTunes and those tags. If you try to "undo" them the
wrong way, you lose the data and can't go back.

This is regarding bug # 259. What about using IP multicasting to

Biomech is right that that this is due to controling the 770 instead of
