Hi all,

I also experienced the "address not found" problem, Im also in the UK.

My ADSL router automatically grabs its DNS server address from the ISP
(usual scenario).  My Squeezebox will ALWAYS fail to resolve the
address for the squeezenetwork.

However, if I use manual settings on my SB and enter in a different DNS
server, the SB will happily resolve addresses.

I used the "tracert" command on both the ISP DNS and my own DNS
settings to see whats going on.  

As it happens, tracert was able to resolve the squeezenetwork address
using either DNS server.  The only difference being that the ISP DNS
took longer to resolve (more hops).  My own DNS setting was about 10
hops shorter, and alot quicker!

Could it be (espically for those in UK who have longer hops to a USA
site) that the DNS is'nt failing to resolve the address, but that the
squeezebox is timing out too quickly and not being patient enough??

Is it possible for a future firmware to increase the DNS resolve name
timeout?

For what its worth, my UK ISP is BT Openworld.  If other UK members are
having troble, I'll post the details of vaild alternative DNS servers
you can use to manually configure your squeezebox.

Cheers,
Michael.
