Ah, I knew it was too good to be true - after the phone seeming to consistently connect to the main router all last night, today I find that I'm back to square one. I'm pretty much convinced that this is some oddness within the Sky router now and have resigned myself to not getting it sorted unti

Finally got this sorted out :D Searching for the main router by model number led me to a discussion on the Sky help forum started by someone whose wireless devices couldn't see other connected devices. Disabling "Enable IPv6 on Lan side" within the router worked for him and seems to have done th

I think I've probably reached the limits of my understanding over the last six months of battling with this... The second router is definitely not connected via its WAN port and the DHCP has always been disabled on it. But if the problem was with how the second router was set up, wouldn't the co

Take some time to understand your network ? And it's settings . Not just following some guide try to grasp what you done . A common mistake is to actually have two networks in series not one , for example some extra router conected via it's WAN input creatings it's own network and DHCP . If it's

Look at the wireless settings on the main router. Do they include a "client isolation" option? This is where the wireless client can see the internet but nothing else on the network. *Vortexbox LMS 7.9 music on QNAP TS419p via NFS* iThingys/iPeng/Tablets *Living Room* - SB3 -> Onkyo TS606 - > C

Restarting the PC righted things at that end - to be fair this is something that seems to happen every once in a while regardless of what else has been happening. The SB2 seems to be behaving itself connected to the main router but the phone still seems to only allow Orange Squeeze and Squeezepla

I knew it was too good to be true... The SB2 seems to be working fine, Orange Squeeze on the phone seems to be OK but now my laptop no longer lists any of the Squeezeboxes on the "network" page and I cannot access LMS via the browser even if I type "192.168.0.2:9000" directly into the address bar

That would cause an issue! Chances are that something else had the same IP address. *Vortexbox LMS 7.9 music on QNAP TS419p via NFS* iThingys/iPeng/Tablets *Living Room* - SB3 -> Onkyo TS606 - > Celestion Ditton F20s - Zone 2 -> Sony TA FE 320 -> Sennheiser RS 130 & B&W P7 *Office* - RPi -> Son

Many thanks for the further reply - and for your time in wading through that horribly formatted PC Advisor website. I've been checking the set up again and I think I've cracked it: I think the problem was that I'd set the IP address of the repeater *within* the range that the main router was allo

That guide is correct (if massively long winded). You haven't by any chance plugged the repeater in using its WAN port have you? And you did disable the DHCP server on the repeater didn't you? *Vortexbox LMS 7.9 music on QNAP TS419p via NFS* iThingys/iPeng/Tablets *Living Room* - SB3 -> Onkyo T

What do you mean by repeater/extender router? Do you really mean a switch or are you trying to use a router as a switch which you can do but only if you set it up properly? *Vortexbox LMS 7.9 music on QNAP TS419p via NFS* iThingys/iPeng/Tablets *Living Room* - SB3 -> Onkyo TS606 - > Celestion D

I've just added a Squeezebox 2 to my Boom, Radio x2, Duet x2, Touch x2 set up and have found that although it will happily connect to either of my routers, it can only see LMS when connected to the "extender" router (same SSID, connected to main router by ethernet cable, fixed IP). Bizarrely (to
