Your Transporter is probably connected to SqueezeNetwork, rather than your local SlimServer. To tell if this is the case, go to the main menu (tap the LEFT arrow a couple of times), and see if the first line of the display says “SqueezeNetwork (X of Y)”. If it does, press down until you see Sign Off and press the RIGHT arrow.
