attempts to contact our local name-server for name-resolution nor does it try to connect to external name-servers. But since name-resolution has to be done somehow I wonder if the SB3 gets the info from SN? (thats somehow important if you override some dns-zones) -- finger

think that the hardware differs a lot. Maybe the SB even has a more modern Wireless-Chipset than my Laptop. That's why I assume that the developers simply adopted the same way to deal with network problems from the wired part and thats really a bad assumption. -- finger
