I have a recurring issue with my controller that I can't figure out (maybe a bug?).

If I power down the controller and turn it back on it freezes on the Logitech logo at start-up, I have to remove the battery to restart, usually takes 5-6 times of this before it advances past the Logitech logo and to the blue "Feel your music" screen and plays the short tone.

Once I get there, it loads to a screen with two choices, Settings and Choose Player. It typically takes the 5th or 6th time of rebooting to this screen before it finds my player and connects. Once it does, it works fine. I get around it by never powering down, and just keeping the controller in the cradle. This whole process once powered down usually takes 45 minutes, and about 25-30 restarts of the controller to get it to unfreeze, or find my receiver.

Anyone else have this issue? I don't see this as the typical network settings problem, once I find it, I'm set, 85-90% signal strength and no disconnection issues.

What version of SC are you running? What is the version number of the Controller Firmware?
Version of SC can be found by going to Setting then Information tab on the WebUI. For the Controller hit Home then select Settings, Advanced, About.

I'm running the latest nightly build of 7.3.3, r3856 on controller.
