  • One for Techincal experts... OT warning

    Hey all

    Appreciate this is totally off-topic, but what the heck, some on here might find the resolution useful.

    I have a Mac, and a home WiFi network that all seems to work very well - all except in one area that I discovered yeserday.

    I usually have my ethernet cable connected to my Mac, rather than use the wireless, as I seem to get faster throughput to my USB external drives.

    However, last night I noticed something unusual. I was listening to DI FM Ambient channel on iTunes whilst connected to the internet via ethernet but when I wanted to do some work with my daughter in the lounge, I disconnected the ethernet cable, and turned on airport. It found the home network straight away and I was back on the net - but not on iTunes, which wouldn't play my radio stream. I exited and restarted iTunes to no avail, it won't play iTunes radio via wifi.

    So, I decided to check iTunes via WiFi on my Dell - which worked

    So, I decided to check iTunes via WiFi on my wifes Macbook - it worked

    So... what do I look for now?

    I'm not a mac user but my first port of call would be to check the firewall set up against the two network interfaces.

    Do you have the same subnet on your wired network as you do on your wireless network?
