Will Squeezebox Touch play iTunes from USB Drive?

Additional transmitter/receivers can complicate the matter. To determine if it is a wireless problem, run an ethernet cable from the SBT to the router and see if that has any interruptions.

In my case, I had to deactivate the WiFi in my PC because it interfered with the signals from my router.

Are you referring to additional AEBS devices? So it's not streaming wirelessly direct from the iMac/iTunes but the wireless signal from the AEBS? I'll try ethernet cable between SBT and AEBS. That's down two flights of stairs. If necessary, and I was prepared for this, I'll try a mobile bus-powered drive, and as last resort run ethernet cable from iMac to SBT.

It is hard to know exactly what is feeding the SBT unless you defeat one. At least, that's how I figured out my problems with a PC-based system. I have no idea what is involved with Apple stuff and I had to look up AEBS.

Haven't had a chance to try ethernet cable (very long run too). SBT Wireless Signal: 50-60% on avg. Did show 70%+ on occasion. Still having "Re-buffering" issues, morning, evening. Extremely annoying. This is why I returned the SB3 a few years back. I should have kept the iTransport/iPod. What I really want is to use my iMac/iTunes, but w/o crappy USB converters, or having to replace my superb DAC with a FireWire version, unsure if it will even sound as good. An iPad would be my ideal music server if it could stream from iMac since it doesn't have enough storage capacity. But anything that requires spending a lot more doesn't help my situation. It's frustrating that I have the perfect music GUI (iTunes) and can't use it.

Why are only some of my album artwork showing in SBT?

I've been experimenting with the AEBS settings (Wireless->Radio Mode->, also Wireless Network Options->Multi-cast rate andUse Interference Robustness), even relocating the AE closer (10'-20') to the SBT and for the most part no significant change in it's signal strength (avg. 50-60%+). Then after setting the AEBS back to 802.11n only (2.4GHz), Multicast Rate at 6 Mbs, and using Interference Robustness, and restarting the other AEBS and AE the SBT signal strength suddenly shows 90-100%. But after I start playing music it goes right back to constantly re-buffering. This SBT as a wireless music server is useless. At least in my situation. Why the SBT can't stream direct from my iMac makes no sense when it has Airport. I'm assuming it is going through the wireless network from the AEBS, then to my iMac, and back.
