Appendix F: Troubleshooting
When setting up the Controller, my network does not appear.
The most common cause is lack of signal strength. Either the Controller is too far away from the wireless router, or there is something interfering with the signal.
Another possibility is that the wireless network has been configured to not broadcast its network name (SSID) for security purposes. If this is the case, the network name can be manually entered into the Controller. Select Other Network and then use the following screen to enter the network name with the SCROLL WHEEL.
When setting up the Receiver, my player does not appear.
Check the status light on the button in the front of the player. Flashing Red is normal and indicates that the player is ready to be set up. If it is not flashing red (for example, if the player was previously set up and we are repeating the setup process on the Controller), press and hold the button until it flashes red. Then, the receiver name should appear on Squeezebox Controller’s display within a few seconds.
Players are displayed in the format Squeezebox XXXXXX, where XXXXXX is the last six digits of the player’s MAC address. The MAC address is found on the bottom of the player. For example, if the player’s MAC address is:
00:08:67:05:03:09
It will appear in the Set Up Receiver menu as Squeezebox 050309.
Other possible causes:
•Check that the player is plugged into a power outlet.
•Confirm that the player is in range of the wireless network. If it’s on the outer fringes of the network, consider temporarily moving it closer to the wireless router for the purposes of setup and demonstration. The Squeezebox Receiver can also be connected to a router via an ethernet cable.
