Hi, iam puzzled, so i hope you can help…
I’ve got a Roku Soundbridge M1000. When it starts it displays M1001. The softwareversion is 3.0.44. It can connect to the wireless network (WPA2-PSK) and it can listen to online radio stations.
I have a computer connected tot the network running Fedora Core 9. I downloaded the 1696 version of the firefly server. It compiled without any problems and it is running ok. I can reach the webinterface from any computer in the network. Also acording to the logfile everything is correct:
[root@localhost ~]# tail /var/log/mt-daapd.log

Can anybody tell me what iam doing wrong?

I’ve seen alot of these problems with wireless connectivity.
Firefly broadcasts itself over the network. Some routers default have unicast/multicast disabled, which blocks the broadcast.
This way, wireless devices will not discover firefly.
Long story short, check your router and look for unicast/multicast and enable it. -
