I have a permanent, fixed IP on a solid 10mbt connection and a pretty solid wireless network but I have also experienced this strange failed alarm issue. My machines have wireless uptimes counted in weeks and months not hours and minutes with constant IPs. It seems to work if you choose 'current

The answer is to let buyers of OTHER slimdivices products know that they shipped this product which while great in concept is a TOTAL FAIL when it comes to performing its most basic function. How can there NOT be a backup alarm? Twitter, Facebook and other message board here come to mind. --

I just purchased a Squeezebox Radio and thought I'd give the remote from my original v1 SliMP3 player a shot - guess what? It works perfectly, every button exactly as expected. Thanks guys! I'm very happy that Slim Devices, ahem, Logitech, continues to keep producing GREAT products! -- jdepew

I think an alarm clock radio that doesn't alarm with no internet connection is a pretty fundamental issue. Also this doesn't appear to be highly complex bug. What do QA test? Secondarily, that attitude of move to release 8 shows a fundamental lack of care for existing customers. They have boug

Something strange with the spec because IIRC AACplus spec says it should not be used over speeds of 128 as at higher speeds AAC gives better quality/bit. If the problem goes away when disabling "native" then I think you should log a bug with an example file as an attachment so that Logictech can
