Issues with Squeezebox server Version: 7.4

[wsc3]

So ar I cant complain too much as 7.4 handles all 12079 music files show up. I could not care less about the artwork. But, no matter what I do I keep running into the same errors. First, Invalid SqueezeNetwork username or password. It just wont log me in. The login and password are good an verified from my Mac. The latest version of Perl is installed. Secondly, third party modules are not available from the settings page
Firmware Version 2.00.16
Any suggestions??

More stuff!! This is what I see on the plug in page when I try to look at plugins.

Resolved by changing my settings to the following:
WAN/Lan Exchange: enable
WAN: Make sure you have DNS server added
WAN: IP Sharing enabled

This works with my setup where my Router is a seperate device and the N5200 is on the LAN side of the Router.

I'm getting both invalid user/pass for squeezenetwork and the Bad Repositories.
The can't resolve IP messages indicate to me that the Squeezebox server can't do DNS lookups or something..

I have WAN/Lan Exchange set to disable, and nothing connected to the WAN port, my LAN is connected to Routers hub, and previously had the n5200 DHCP disabled, but have enabled it so that I could add DNS server setting, which resulted in the following error instead:

Bad repository www.mysqueezebox.com/public/plugins/logitech.xml - Connect timed out: Transport endpoint is not connected

Bad repository www.hickinbottom.com/sc-plugins/repo.xml - Connect timed out: Transport endpoint is not connected

Very helpful, thanks for posting the fix!

Wish I'd seen this post sooner, it would have saved me 2 days trying to get my Squeezebox to logon to the Internet site.

Was simple as soon as I'd read this, Just needed the DNS setting adding!

Good work fella.
