Thx for all your answers. I did some more testings. And I really don't understand: I've unplugged all my squeezeboxes: it then worked. So it couldn't be SBS. I replugged my squeezeboxes one by one, it also worked fine!!! Now, it seems to work fine with all my squezeboxes plugged! Maybe

when testing stuff like this, only do one thing at a time. if you do many at once, you won't know which one was the key, (altho sometimes it is a combo of things, but thats why you try things in a considered order) -- MrSinatra www.lion-radio.org using: sb2 sbc (my home) / sbrec ipeng

Hi... One caveat upfront is that I'm using a Duet system, not an SB3, but seems like the basics oughta' be the same. I've been playing around with this functionality, too, the past few days. First of all, this phrase from the Wiki is VERY important to understand: There is no way to tell

Odd. Your PC is wired to the router and not using wi-fi? And no plug-in on the Squeezebox Server to do with power-management or preventing system Stand By? When testing, all were in standby mode (clock on display). They are still chatting to Squeezebox Server just to get the time...I'd still

I am very interested in this WOL feature. I have a wired SB3 and an XP computer. I installed MCE and selected S3 sleep state. When I go into devices my SB3 is not listed. How do I enable my SB3 so it can wake my computer from S3 state? I believe that Wake on Magic Packet is enabled on my

the computer has to be wired to the router, the sb3 can be wireless. i have a dell laptop and when i got it, i could not get it to go to sleep or hibernate unattended. i tried EVERYTHING and the only thing that worked, was swapping out the hard drive. from that point on, it slept like a baby.
