Squeezebox Radio would not connect to LMS 8: "Update required"

[tbruner4]

Michael:

Thank you very much for your help. It was the network settings on the container that was at fault. Here were the problems:

• UDP 3483 was mapped to a weird high port number.
• Network Mode was NAT

I erroneously believed since my Squeezebox Boom could discover and use the LMS in that container that the network must be fine.

For others, having potentially the same problems: here's what I changed to fix:

• In containerStation selected the container, then settings, then advanced settings.
• Changed network mode to bridged and set a static IP address (you can do dhcp if you prefer)
• On the squeezebox radio, I added remote library and entered the ip address that I set the container to.
• The radio connected and immediately asked if I wanted to upgrade firmware, to which I said yes.
• Success! The radio can access my music!

Thank you to all that work at keeping the great squeezebox ecosystem going!
