After 8.10 can't see pc on network when wirelessly connected
I have a squeezebox - basically a tiny PC that streams music from my laptop. When on 8.04 I could run my music server on either wireless OR wired connection. Since the update to 8.10 I now find I can only run it on a wired connection.
I had a look at iptables and allowed access on tcp/udp on port 3483 and tcp on port 9000 - which is all that the squeezebox needs. I thought I was getting somewhere, since this allowed intermittent connections from the squeezebox to my laptop on wireless. But the connection was by no means stable.
So I wonder if:
a) 8.10 has made the wireless unstable (no idea where to check the logs on this but browsing is absolutely fine)
b) there is some weird firewalling issue I cannot fathom in Intrepid...
