RE: Cannot set up a Computer for audio - get a network streamer

Tony....do you not understand the iPad simply sends commands to the server software which controls playback on the streamer?

Why do you think the iPad or any control device has some direct connection to the streamer. They do not directly communicate in any way.

I'm beside myself.

In NO way does WiFi touch my audio files. My NAS (computer with attached drives) is wired with CAT7, my streamers are wired with CAT7. The control point (tablet/phone) is on WiFi. Since everything is on the same network, the iPad is nothing but a remote control, but it DOES not send direct commands to the streamer, nor does it send it files to play.
