n00b m1001 question

pookguy88 · Tue Jul 21, 2009 2:40 pm

I just got a m1001 yesterday and I quite like it. This is a minor question but I'm wondering, is there an actual power switch? I wanted to turn it off because I was going to move it to another room but all I could get it to was stand by mode, is it safe to just unplug the power cord in stand by mode or is there something else I should do? I couldn't see a power switch.

thanks!

Hi pookguy88, welcome to the forums -

As there is no on/off switch on the M1001, it must always be left in Ã¢â‚¬Å“standby-modeÃ¢â‚¬

So besides having to redo wifi/config setup is that the worse that can happen? Can there be any permanent damage?

I don't know as it's as unsafe as it sounds here. I hardly change any settings, but I always put my SB "to sleep" by cutting the power using an fm power switcher. Never had any issues so far - although I don't use wifi, my SB is connected via ethernet.

So, yes, there is no real power switch. To be on the safe side, set your SB to stand-by, wait a moment, and then pull the power.

@ fm.72 & pookguy88,

kindly note that the response I gave (above) is merely a paraphrased version of the official instructions which you can read for yourself on page 42 (Section 8 : When You Are Finished Using Soundbridge) of the M1001 USER GUIDE.
