Hi Big Ears Sorry, I think I may have confused the post a bit. I only used the laptop to check I could access the internet OK using the Homeplugs. I have 1 Homeplug connected to the router and the other to the Squeezbox. What do I do regarding IP address? Simon -- Woobag -

You need to connect the homeplug to your router, and the second one to the Squeezebox. The Squeezebox needs to be connected to your network with it's own IP address, not just to your laptop. -- BigEars BigEars's Profile: h

So what are the chances of getting a Logicool-branded Squeezebox? Even if just the firmware was updated with the logo, that would be, er, cool. ;) http://www.logicool.co.jp Thus spoke WikiPedia: "In the Japanese market, Logitech uses the brand name Logicool since a Logitec (ロジテック, Logitec) that
