Hi

I succesfully installed XBMC on my ATV2 a couple of hours ago, I had network connection and could stream video files from my smb share just fine.

All of a sudden the network connection stopped working. Now XBMC report "Link: not connected" even though i can SSH to the ATV2 and an "ifconfig" shows a connection:

Code:
Apple-TV:~ root# ifconfig
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
    inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
en0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
    inet 10.0.0.15 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
    ether 58:55:ca:33:d8:6a
en1: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
    ether 58:55:ca:33:d8:69
The problem exists both when using wired & wireless connection.
Restart/reboot does not fix the problem.

Does anybody have a clue on what is going on here ?

I just tried uninstalling & reinstalling XBMC:
After the reinstallation, the network connection worked from within XBMC - however - when I rebooted the ATV2, the network connection stopped working again...
