I found something that may be a clue to this problem.  When my
Squeezebox was in the "can connect to SlimServer/can't connect to
SqueezeNetwork" mode, I sniffed the traffic on my SlimServer box. 
Traffic from the Squeezebox was using a 169.254.x.x IP address, and my
wireless router/DHCP server did not show the Squeezebox as a DHCP
client (it gives out addresses on 19.168.11.x).  I couldn't understand
how 169.254 traffic could even get routed to my SlimServer box, until I
noticed it had a route for 169.254.  I think this route, and the
Squeezebox's bogus IP came from a VMWare installation running on the
SlimServer box.

I've reconfigured VMWare to remove its DHCP server and deleted the
suspect route.  I'm hoping this is the solution.
