Maybe... It depends on your modem. If your modem works in bridged mode then the IP address assigned by your ISP (your Internet address) passes through the modem and ends up as the WAN IP of your router. BUT, if your modem is a combination modem/router, the WAN IP of the modem is the Internet address, and the modem gives the router a private WAN IP (10.0.0.x or 192.168.x.y). Also, the IP Address listed on SN is the IP Address recorded the last time your SB connected to SN. If your ISP assigns dynamic Internet addresses, and if your SB hasn't connected to SN in a while, the two may not match. You can check if the two IP addresses belong to the same provider by doing the following: - click Start - click Run - type: CMD - press Enter - in the DOS box, type: NSLOOKUP <IP ADDRESS> (Where IP ADDRESS is either the WAN IP of your router or the one mentioned in SN) - press Enter If the result for both NSLOOKUPs show the same provider, you probably just got assinged a different IP as I mentioned above. If it shows different providers there's something funky going on. NOTE: NSLOOKUP wont get the desired result when using private IP's (10.0.0.x or 192.168.x.y). -- BastiaanR Squeezebox Controller (fw 62) Squeezebox Receiver (fw r6038) 1TB fileserver, Windows XP SP3, running SqueezeCenter 7.3.4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BastiaanR's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22178 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66411 _______________________________________________ squeezenetwork mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezenetwork
