1. turn off wifi on my IPhone while streaming to shareport4w.
2. turn wifi back on.
3. try to stream to shareport4w again and its not working (it tries to connect to shareport42 and after 1 second sound on Iphone "pops" back to play locally again)

P.S
I think shareport4w still have socket open from old connection which was not close properly.
Maybe implement some sort of garbage collector that checks if connection is alive and if not closes the socket and starts listening again.
Or even better, if new connection is coming to shareport4w from iphone, kick the active one and start playing from the one that was just requested.

    It seems like I have the same problem with shareport4w. When I restart my ipod or iTunes during playback the shareport4w isn't shown after restarting the application. When I now restart the sharport4w it is found at once from the ipod as well as from itunes

    Try to turn off your desktop firewall. Shairport4w isn't responsible for registering its service in your network by the way. It's Bonjour. Try the App "Discovery - Bonjour Browser" to locate registering problems with Apple's ZeroConf protocol.
