It sounds like you are using PPPoE to connect to the Internet on your computer. Squeezebox2 can't use PPPoE to connect to the Internet. Most internet providers that use PPPoE don't allow more than one device to connect on an account.

The best solution would be to get a firewall/router and install it between your modem and your network and have that use PPPoE and have your computer and Squeezebox to connect with that.

Hi,

I have a similar problem as Jonathan but using my ISP's DNS server
didnt resolve it.


From another thread about this problem, I made the following checks:


* I can connect to SqueezeNetwork using Softsqueeze on the same PC that
is connected to my wireless router

* from this PC I can ping service.us.squeezenetwork.com

* doing an ipconfig /all on this PC gives:

...
PPP adapter IOL Broadband:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : WAN (PPP/SLIP) Interface
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-53-45-00-00-00
Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 213.202.148.135
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.255
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 213.202.148.135
DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 194.125.2.240
194.125.2.241

for my ISP broadband interface.

Putting these values into my squeezebox (using a static IP) - it hangs
saying "Connecting to Squeezenetwork..." and then goes blank.

Other variations give the "Can't find address for Squeezenetwork"
error.

I am using firmware version 15.

I'd be very grateful for any help.

Thanks,
Brian.
