Bugzilla – Bug 6356
Ray is constantly losing and getting back connection to SC.

Ray FW: 18 SqueezeCenter: Ray build, 2007-12-13 with Ray_18.bin added and Ray version file changed to down grade Ray to 18. Steps: 1. Reset both Ray and Jive. 2. Disable DHCP on the router of private network. 3. Setup Ray with Jive. Assign static IPs to both. 4. Connect Ray to PC running SqueezeCenter. 5. Play a song. 6. Notice the LED on Ray is turning slowly from white to blue, then blue to white, and back again. 7. The song is playing, but most likely from the buffer. 8. If Ray stayed blue too long, the song would stop. When Ray turns white, the song palys again.
Created attachment 2528 [details] This is the server log.
I've retested this setup with static ip addresses for Jive and Ray and I do not see this behavior. I.e. music plays without interruption and Ray's LED stays white. My guess is it was an issue with SC or the fixed ip address was already used by another device in the network.
Wallace: can you reproduce?
Ping Wallace: can you reproduce this with the latest 7.0 software/firmware?
Have not seen this bug for a long time. Up to last Friday, this bug appeared to be fixed. However, Jive and Ray are not able to connect to today's SC nightly(bug$ 6835). That is a blocking bug. When that bug is resolved, this bug can be regressed and closed.
Tried again with today's SC 7.0 and Jive FW 1 r1658. Bug as written is no longer seen. In fact, this bug has not been seen for a while. Marking as wroks for me.
Tried couple of times earlier. Verified that this bug is definitely gone. Markign as "VERIFIED".
Closing.
