Tried this but no better off, still can’t see the server from the soundbridge. Log file output as noted.

Do you have a “mDNSResponder” or an “avahi-daemon” running? This is fc5 for intel, right?

anything funky? Multinetted, multihomed, or aliases on an interface? Anything stranger than a straight eth0 connected to local lan?

[mmain]

mDNSresponder and avahi-daemon are not running, both are disabled in fc5 startup.

The machine has two ethernet cards serving as a firewall between the local lan (eth0) and the adsl modem (eth1). The firewall runs under firestarter, which I had to manually amend originally to get multicast operating correctly, which under default configuration does not route.

I should probably point out that whilst the soundbridge does not seem to work with the later versions (1528, 1539), running iTunes from windows is fine.

Did it ever work in this machine with firestarter running?

And are you saying that you can see the server from a windows client, but not from the soundbridge client? Is that right? I’m not sure what that would point to. Multicast problems on the wireless access point? Could you move the sb to the wired network for testing?

Do you have a wireless laptop you could run on the wireless side to see if iTunes could see the it from a laptop on the wireless net?

Strange…

If that’s the case, then it

I am not having the same setup, but I had a similar problem. My FireFly was sitting on the ethernet side, but both soundbridges and also iTunes where on WLAN. Problem was, that after a few minutes/hours the FireFly did disappear from the WLAN side of the router.

I did traces and stuff and finally found the issue to be the router itself. I have tried Zyxel, D-Link and Netgear, all had the same problem. I now switched to Linksys and the problem disappeared.

You can also check if your router has something called “WLAN isolation”, which will prevent two WLAN devices to see each other. Try turning this off. Otherwise, your only help is to replace the WLAN router.

I ended up getting this hooked up through a pair of dLan adaptors, which allowed me to network the soundbridge via the mains supply. This works a treat with all svn versions and minimal configuration effort. The DLink DWL2100AP seems to have been the cause of my problems and is certainly blocking some traffic, although nothing documented or configurable to overcome this.
