Rebooting the modem and router didn’t work, nor did clearing the browser. Vortecjr had a useful idea. I put the ultraRendu back on the network and did a power-down from the web interface. It’s gone now. Thanks!

Well, I rebooted the modem and router, to no avail. The old uRendu still shows up in MSO. I'll shut everything down tomorrow and try again. Also will try to assign an IP to the oR. It doesn't look like there's a function to hook the uR back up and say, "remove this device". At the end of the day, it's not a big deal. Just this:

This should be an easy one: I just successfully installed a new opticalRendu in my system, replacing an ultraRendu. The ultraRendu is powered down and off the rack. MySonicOrbiter reports both devices. I'd like to remove the ultraRendu from the list, but when I click Manage, of course it cannot find the device. Is there a way to remove the ultra from MSO without hooking it back up, or do I need to make it accessible to the network and then Manage > Remove it?

I've been lurking on CA for quite a while, learning a lot along the way. But 'dis guy... 'dis guy caused me to register and post today. Disclaimer: I own and enjoy a PS Audio Directstream (Pike's), and have for some time. I don't know if anyone has noticed, but there's a cat on Audiogon who has been wailing the same tune for quite a while, username is "Coli." Hmmm, "Coli" == "ilok"? In a fit of anti-evangelistic fervor, Coli/ilok has been trashing the DS as well as PS Audio as a company, which I think is categorically unfair, both to PSA and to anyone who might be considering purchasing the DS. Look, Colick, we've all made mistakes when building systems. It's part of the hobby. Many people have made far more expensive mistakes, some of which involve sparks and smoke. (Don't ask me how I know this.) As has been mentioned here, the DS may have been defective. The DS may have been dropped from on high. Who knows? But, at any time did you contact PS Audio to see if their support personnel might have actually been of help? I've always found PS Audio to be highly responsive to any questions or issues. Evidently, you chose instead to replace most/all of your surrounding system before giving up on the DS without ever contacting PSA. Odd approach, actually. It probably wound up costing far more to replace your system than to return the DS. This seems like a classic case of projection. The responsibility which you cannot accept for yourself gets projected outward on to something or someone other, in this case PS Audio. Clearly, it's not their fault, and to suggest that they were dishonest based on your one experience is a rather sad reflection of your state of mind. I think that most people can see through your statements, seeing them for what they are. Time to grow up and move on, admit your mistakes, rather than bad-mouthing others. Carry on. I've been enjoying this thread before all of this.
