Not match precisely, but on your local lan all networked things usually in a simple network should have.. 192.168.2.x where in case of your server x=10 So any other thing can be lets say 192.168.2.5 or any x between 1-255 192.168.2.1 is probably your router They usually have the same netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway can be your routers ip again DNS can be your routers-ip or your ISP's dns servers ip The 192.168.xxx.xxx ip numbers are reserved for Local area networks, this is what the router does (or should do) maintain a local network and then translate that traffic to your external address as seen from the internet , it's a kind of switchboard. Why I asked is because it looks like you squeezebox gets an "outside" WAN address from you ISP ? this is very strange, the only thing that should have such an address is your 2-wires port to your isp, as Danny 8 said. If you pull the power from the SB3 and pull the power from your router. Start the router, wait until you sure that it is up and running properly. Then start the SB3 and see if gets a more reasonable ip adress There have been cases reported on this forum, where the router is not acting properly on DHCP request (I SB ask for ip ,netmask and dns etc) but SB instead mysteriously connects with your ISP's server and gets an address from their server directly ? Others have had boxes they have thought where routers, but one guy had a switch ;) so he had no Local network, his "Lan" was with 1000's of other hapless buddies, so it was i bit hard for his controller to find his reciever in that mess. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe'Primare and Dynadio speakers (including a pair of Contour 4 ) Bedroom/Office: Boom Kitchen: SB3 + powered Fostex PM0.4 Miscellaneous use: Radio (with battery) I use a Controller various ir-remotes and a Eee-PC with squeezeplay to control this ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77280 _______________________________________________ squeezenetwork mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezenetwork
