Thanks Paul for the hints, so I took some further attempts, but to no success. It seems that Pi/PiCore/PiCorePlayer totally ignore the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, although all my other devices (Laptop, mobiles, Squeezeradio, and pCP previously) have no issues with it. I wasn't even actually aware before that there was an option to assign separate SSIDs for the two WiFi bands in my router... but now I did it. Most of my devices are an 5 GHz by now, but a few still need 2.4, plus it reaches more far than the 5 GHz signal. Surprisingly, even after assigning a different SSID (highway69n) to the 2.4 band, that new SSID is not shown in the WiFi Diagnostic page, but only the 5 band (highway69). I'm about done here.. last options might be to mess around with IPv6 but before I do that I might rather switch back to pCP 3.5. How can I "pastebin" the results of the wifi diagnostics... ok I managed to attach as PDF. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: pCP - Wifi Diagnostics.pdf | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=25561| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ *Server:* LMS 7.9.1 on Synology DS216Play.
