I just ran into this discussion...and have a problem which may, or not be analagous.Specifically, I have an XP and a Vista Ultimate system both hard wired into an old Linksys wireless router (BEFW11s4v4, latest firmware installed).  Both systems do well with audio and video streaming...and the XP system has no problem with XM Radio...but when I try to audio stream either via the XM Web Site, or a gadget, with the Vista system, my router freezes and requires a reboot.I am wondering if there is any way to know if the problem is with Vista, or whether I just need a new router...I obviously would like to avoid buying a new router, and finding the exact same problem persists.Thanks so much in advance if anyone has thoughts on this.

Windows Vista Fix!!!The following registry key: "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Connection Wizard" must have a 1 and not a 0.  I think unless I have the 1 and 0 reverse.

Have tried this at 1 and 0. No change that I can see on XM Radio playback.

Just tried that...still no joy.

Now I get a "Windows Media Player cannot play any items in playlist"
message. Web Help sends me to a C00D10B5 message.

Hello All,This is my first post here. I've had this problem for months and was unsuccessful at finding a solution until yesterday. Here it is courtesy of: Jeff Leites  Posts: n/a WMP11 for Vista can't play stream audio from internet radio Update - Later in the day the problem returned, and I tried somethingelse I found for a related problem in another forum:Opened Windows Medial Player. On the menu, selected, Tools, Options, Network. Changed the *Proxy* for Protocal HTTP from *Use Proxy Settings of the WebBrowser *to* Autodetect Proxy Settings*. It?s working again for now.We'll see for how long.  Thanks Jeff! This worked for me. I can now play XM Radio both in Media Center, WMP 11 as well as the XM Gadget from Build-A-Gadget. None of these have worked for the last 4 months. I have rebooted the computer twice since yesterday and all settings have remained. Furthermore, XM works in all programs. Hope this works for you too.

If you are having trouble getting sound from XM radio on your computer,
despite the fact that sound--including streaming media--works fine on
everthing else, try this.
(1) Open Windows Media Player (I'm using version 10.00.00.4074, but I
don't think that's critical.)
(2) Click "Tools."
(3) Click "Options."
(4) Select the "Network" tab.
(5) Under "Streaming protocols," be sure the box beside "UDP" is
UNCHECKED. You can leave the boxes beside "Multicast," "TCP," and "HTTP"
checked.
(6) Under "Streaming proxy settings," choose "HTTP" as the protocol.
(7) Click "Apply" and then click "Close."
(8) Open the drop-down list of online stores by clicking the down-arrow
on the upper left end of the Windows Media Player screen, and select "XM
Radio."
(9) When the XM screen appears, type in your e-mail address and
password and log in as usual.
(10) Make sure the volume is turned up on your computer. Select a
station and you should be good to go.

NOTE: After I found this fix (unchecking "UDP" as a protocol) I noticed
that for some reason, when I went directly to www.xmradio.com to log in,
the streaming audio sometimes died after playing for a minute or two.
That caused the screen to freeze, requiring a reboot.

After further experimentation, I discovered that opening the XM site
from the Windows Media Player menu of online stores eliminated the
problem.

Happy listening, and let me know if this fix works for you.
