I have ATV attached through wireless N router to a Dell PC that also is connected to a the same router through N. I seem to have issues where if the PC loses the connection briefly that ATV sometimes forgets where it is. This is a sometimes thing. Most times no problem. In the ATV the library appears greyed out. I can not disconnect, nothing happens when I try.
On bad days this can happen several times. I then have to reconnect with a new passcode. Works fine for a while. Or sometimes I need to reload the library by force. I do that and everything comes up.
So Christmas day I went an bought another ATV for the bedroom. Works great but I did lose the connection once. The boxes are the same distance from the router and go through an equal amount of walls.
Last night wife falls asleep in front of the TV in the living room. Streams through 4 movies while sleeping. I fall asleep in the bedroom leave the box on and go through 3. No problems both boxes are happy and no connection problems.
So why am I losing the connection. Ok, probably network related but I can not do hard lines. Once a movie is going no problems with wireless. But why is the ATV not finding iTunes like it should? Why is the library greyed out? Any suggestion would be appreciated.
