Nope, there’s nothing salacious being implied by the title of this post. It’s about the ongoing DHCP client problem with my Logitech streaming audio devices. As a result of the occasional failure to successfully complete the renewal of their private space IP address leases via DHCP, they have been falling off the network.
Several players are Squeezeplay programs on Windows, so they don’t have the problem, like these Logitech hardware players do.
The TCP/IP software on the Squeezebox Touch supports APIPA — automatic private internet protocol addressing. I haven’t noticed if it’s also available on the radios.
Decades ago, in the age of 10 Mbps Ethernet hubs, I experimented with self-assigned IP addresses in Windows. In fact, until working on this latest problem, I believed the feature was unique to Windows.
Fortunately, I was wrong. With a self-assigned IP address, the Squeezebox Touch is playing nice with the Lyrion music server, the other Logitech players, and the wide world beyond. As long as everything continues to work I’m going to take the win and stop all of the fussing and futzing.

I won’t make a habit of sharing memes, but I’ve vetted this one as being an accurate quote. It’s from Brave New World Revisited, 1958.
Canada and Mexico accounted for 47% of U.S. automobile imports and 54% of car parts imports in 2023. They’re also major markets for U.S. auto exports, with the two receiving 75% of America’s exported car parts that year.
Nervous auto execs met with Trump to discuss his 25% tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports.
What’s the point of enacting tariffs on cars one day, then putting them on hold the next?
Trump exempts carmakers from tariffs temporarily
I can’t imagine large corporations will tolerate this sort of chaos for all four years of Trump’s term. Town halls packed with angry voters — who are not “professional protesters” — are one thing, but when elected officials start feeling the wrath of major employers in their districts, they’d better act.
