No idea on dacs - there's a dac thread on the forum somewhere - best ask there if it's compatible.

For me using Ethernet has a few advantages.
- Frees up a 2nd USB in the case of f you remove the WiFi card
- One of my Jogglers is also my server as well as a player, double hops by WiFi can certainly be problematic, especially as my music files are on a NAS in another room.

Never had wifi problems .. and nas is at least 20 m away from Joggler on an upstairs floor. Stone floors and walls. Guess your mileage may vary!

Still I haven't succeeded.
Does anyone know if you can look up the settings UPnP uses? Because that instantly does find my NAS?

Did you try the SqpOS route?
UPnP is a different system to CIFS - doubt it would help.
We need to try the normal linux mount command with the verbose option - that way we may get some error messages which point to the cause.

If you are prepared to test it out. We need to see if the problem is at the Seagate ....
The quickest way to test this would be to use the SqpOS on usb method. This will boot the Joggler to a version which uses a standard linux where we can test the mount command. Doing this will leave the PnP in place. Everthing runs from the usb stick.
If you want to try this: write the image to a usb stick -
http://birdslikewires.co.uk/download/jo ... 109.img.gz . Extract the .img file and write to usb.
Restart the Joggler with the new usb in place - it will boot to the SqpOS - go to Settings and set up the wifi AND then Settings > Advanced > Additional Features to enable SSH login.
Sqp boots.
It asks for desired language, I choose NL. It then says "let's connect to your music etc..". OK. I get in the options menu. I there choose for Wireless, fill network SSID and wifi code and then it tries to connect with Mysqueezebox.com but it doesn't succeed.. Do I need a mysqueezebox account for it to set up right?

Don't bother with any other settings at this point.
Check that you can PuTTY login - joggler + joggler. Once you have terminal access, simply type:
sudo mkdir /srv/TEST
If you can confirm you have access, then we can try out a mount of the NAS again using the normal mount syntax:
sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13/Muziek /srv/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler
Wait for prompt
if it doesn't work, then do
sudo mount -vvv -t cifs //192.168.0.13/Muziek /srv/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler
This should return the various steps it tries to mount - maybe there's a clue there?

Do you see your music listed?

I do see music listed, but at this moment my laptop is running Squeezebox Server and playing music from my laptop.. I needed that to create an account @ mysqueezebox.com. So not sure if it's my NAS. Can you determine that??
I will quit Squeezebox Server on the laptop and see what happens...

It's almost 100% certain it's working, if you see a long list of music files, folders when you do the dir.
Of course this sadly doesn't help with the PnP problem - other than it suggests the NAS and the PnP busybox mount routine are incompatible!
Also, the mount you have working is not permanent - it'll disappear when the Joggler is off/rebooted, and won't reappear unless you specifically do the mount again. What you need is an automatic mount! We can do that easily enough (although a bit technical!).
At least we seem to have shown that it works.
You have to decide what you want to do - run PnP and get a big usb stick, or run SqPos with your nas.

We are just testing that the mount command works in conjunction with your NAS. It does. So, you need to choose how you want to proceed!

You can test the mount again by unmounting and remounting.
sudo umount /srv/TEST
dir /srv/TEST (should show NO files)
sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13/Muziek /srv/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler
dir /srv/TEST (should show files)

it works just as you describe! unmounting: empty. Mounting: list.
So that's it then. The problem is with PNPIII which can't seem to find my NAS?
But I feel there must be a way to succeed with my NAS... But for the time being I will use an usb stick or SD-card..

Okay!
At least we know that it works.
Maybe somebody will have a brainwave for the busybox problem. As far as I can recall, we've tried just about every combination withut success. I'm out of ideas on that.
Get back if you need any more help.

On the PnP setup:
Try:
if it doesn't already exist, mkdir /media/TEST
then
/bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //yourNASaddrress\Musiek /media/TEST -o user=Joggler,password=Joggler
then dir /media/TEST if there are no errors
