The router has it’s own firewall but like i said this is local traffic isn’t it?Why should i open ports.If you know more please tell me what ports i should open? I would really appreciate it.

Dunno, just that usually the wireless card is a different interface from the switchports, so traffic that is “bridged” between the interfaces might end up going through some kind of filtering.

I didn’t know if there was perhaps some kind of setting on the wireless side to isolate it from wired, like “only allow internet access from wireless” or something.

That’s about all I can think, particuarly if it has settings to allow multicast.

After you enabled the multicast streaming, you stopped and started the daap server and/or the bonjour server (if you have a separate one), right? Because they only register multicast addresses at startup.
