Snakeoil Firmware - 1.2.8 (Gear Isolation U8)

[patricia1066]

How can a Webapp connect to the local server without an internet connection? My ISP provides a modem/router combined box, and when it is out of service due to firmware update, there is no LAN or wifi (or LMS)

Adding a switch, and then connecting your pc and SnakeOil server by LAN cable to that switch.  Then your PC and SnakeOil will not be affected by router at all.  If your music files are stored in the pc, you'll find the adding a switch improves the sound quality to certain extend.

Thanks. I will look into this.
If the ethernet switch replaces the LAN ports on the ISP modem/router, can these obtain DHCP addresses? We have very stable DHCP addresses at the moment, which is good because our modem doesn't allow fixed IP addresses. If the squeezebox touch is on the switch rather than the modem, it's going to get a new IP address, unless we specify MAC address to an IP address.
