Wireless range depends on so many factors that it's hard to generalize,
but I think the theoretical limit for 802.11g is around 100 meters, and
in the real world it's likely to be a lot less than that. Also, what

I think it only will refresh the playlists during rescan, so the easiest
way is to perform a rescan with rescan playlists only.
It is possible to start a rescan using the CLI by connecting to port

possible to perform the rescan
