[SlimDevices: Beginners] "Newbie" SC Navigation Anomalies

[thenoo]

I have a LAN with a laptop connected wirelessly to a desktop which is
connected to the Web through a Linksys wireless router. Due to poor
wirless signal,I have setup the Squeezebox using an ethernet cable to
the router - (For those who haven't connected my recent two separate
posts here , I am using iTunes and have my music in the path "G:/Itunes
Library" - see previous post from me ). 

I have had "patchy" results with this setup , initially there was much
"stuttering" in the music reception , accompanied with slow navigation
through the SC ,then for no explicable reason , the music played OK and
navigation through my music library using both remote and the S.C. web
interface was quick and practically instantaneous when changing between
the various settings such as ALBUMS ,GENRES,ARTISTS etc.

However , today , after importing some CD music , I had great
difficulty in getting the SB to connect to the SC - it would stick at
"Connecting to the SC" and when it did connect, navigating in the SC
slowed to a crawl using both remote and web interface .When I managed
to get it to a particular track , pressing "PLAY" did nothing for
sometimes about 5 mins before it began to play.

Also there were other "anomalies" .
For instance , if I selected the "POWER" button on the remote , it
initially turned off the SB but then the SB immediately  switched into
the "Connecting to Ethernet" sequence without any further commands on
my part.
There are errors in both the Server and Scanner logs- ( see Attachments
)

I attempted to upload both a Scanner Log and a Server log here but I
think only one attached, I am , therefore including here a summary of
the Server log entry :-

This repeats the message :- 

"...[08-06-06 23:16:06.4881] Slim::Web::JSONRPC::requestMethod (383)
request not dispatchable!
[08-06-06 23:16:06.4914] Slim::Networking::Select::select (245) Error:
Select task failed: Can't call method "streamformat" on an undefined
value at /<G:\UTILIT~1\SQUEEZ~1\server\SQUEEZ~1.EXE>Slim/Web/HTTP.pm
line 1970.
[08-06-06 23:16:06.6090] Slim::Networking::Select::select (245) Error:
Select task failed:"

Can any of this explain why the navigation has slowed and also why the
erratic behaviour of the remote commands should be happening ?
