Server Restart loosing player (WinXP)

[MarkusKl]

Hi,

I know there is quite some discussion about reconnection etc.

In my situation I am having 2 HW players (1 touch, 1 receiver) connected via LAN to my PC running WinXP with all updates installed.
When I shutdown the LMS and restart it does not find and connect to my HW players again. Also, a connection to the LMS via my laptop running Win7 with the the web interace does not even show the LMS's pages although on the PC running the LMS itself it does, but - as stated - not see any players. Also on the player's LED/displays I can verify that they are not connected to any server anymore...

Restarting the complete PC does fix the issue.
Is this a known bug ?
It does seem that this also occurs on Win7, but only in a few (not reproducable) cases...

Any help ?

Thanks in advance,
Markus

I have the same annoying problem. On my SB3 and Boom box, after I restart my server, the players never auto-reconnect. I have to left-arrow back to setup screen and attempt to reconnect, which works.

If I don't, it leaves the players on with the very bright text message. This is happening for me with SBS 7.5.6, so whatever broke it has been in the build for some time.
