Description steve 2007-06-23 02:53:03 UTC

I have just setup two new Squeezebox V3.  I am based in London and run off a Sky Broadband service.

When I try to access "My local Radio stations" it thinks I am in Dallas, USA although of course I am not.  Slimdevices technical support say that it is due to my IP address but I have checked with Sky and their DHCP servers are all in the UK.  My IP address is therefore a UK IP address.

What is causing both of my devices to think it is in the US?

We don't yet ask for your location to pass to Radiotime.  You should go create a Radiotime account, enter that account in SlimServer/SqueezeNetwork, and then it will give you the right local stations.
