Thanks for the help, Alejo. I am hoping to find time to deal with this later in the week.
While my stream is down where do I find the instructions on uploading an audio file?
Here is my postal address for receiving the new CF card:
421 N. Drake Avenue Chicago IL 60624-1368 USA
All the best, Eric

I need help configuring a wireless streambox to stream over my wireless network, which requires a password to access.
wep, wap?
It's WPA2
i have never done this, it should be possible. both wicd: http://wicd.sourceforge.net/screenshot.php and nm-applet: http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/
are there for configuring your wireless network.
the 2 problems are,
1.i have never done it 2. doing it remotely over the internet on a network i dont know how is set up becomes even more difficult
my advice, obvious one, is that when you are behind such tigh networks (strict firewalls, etc) you should then get in touch with the network admin, he/she will most likely get your config running in a breeze.
also, wireless tends to be very unstable, hence is not usually recommended for streaming.
Well, I can't think of a better solution. I need keep the windows closed during to conserve heat and money.
sure only if what you want to stream is outside..
I looked at the FAQ and also the video athttp://www.vimeo.com/2236743
that video doesnt covers setting up a wireless network, plus is too old and perhaps misleading (hence i just removed it).
I also have Mac (OS 10.6.4).
you need nothing more than the streambox itself to do it.
Really?
unless i dont understand what you want to do. assuming you have a wpa2 network and a streambox with a wireless card, then the only things to do is open its network utility (wicd or nm-applet) select the name of the station and add its password.
what else? is like on your Apple Macintosh OS 10.6.4
either via the network utility or via command line, of course it helps if you understand a bit what you are doing instead of just copy pasting commands.
So I have the Network Utility open. What do I do?
look for the name of your "Airport" and click on it, you will be prompt for a password.
Thank you.
it might help to look at some of this videos: http://www.google.ch/search?hl=en&tbs=vid:1&q=network+wireless+ubunt... http://www.google.ch/search?hl=en&tbs=vid:1&q=network+wireless+ubuntu+configuration&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=
OK. I'll check.
please do, im sure it will help, cause i havent done it plus over internet it becomes a bit like wild guessing.
also, it might be better if i send you a new system and you replace the CF card on your streambox.
This streambox is a new one. It was sent us at SAIC. Robb Drinkwater said we can't use the wireless one at SAIC because of the firewall the school has. That means we have to run it on ethernet through a special router. I am swapping my old box with the new one. The new one is hooked up now via ethernet:http://locus.creacast.com:9001/chicago_westside.ogg
you see (guessing here), is most likely that port 8000 is closed and that the network admin will not be willing to open it in fear of a terrorist act, then is not at all a problem of the streambox, the best thing is asking whoever the network admin is how to go about it, else you are being blocked inside a room.
theres a newer system, as said i can send you a CF card with it if you provide me your postal address.
