Yes, noticed that this evening. Now cannot get any signal thru from SB.COM - radio doesn't respond, no presets, no stations at all and radio antenna is red on display.

I had some weird problems with my Squeezebox Radio tonight where i also got the red Wi Fi radio antenna and minimal menus, even though it was actually playing the very same song that my always-more-reliable Boom was playing in the next room! I couldn't get it to reconnect to my Wi Fi network (even rebooted my Wi Fi router) and so after fussing with it a bit I decided that maybe it was time to set the Radio back to "Factory Settings," which I don't think I've done before. I still had trouble and had to enter my long WPA2 password twice (what a pain!). Eventually I got it going again, but it took over a half hour of fiddling with it. And in the process, squeezeit, I *did* see what you're talking about (the "connect to mysqueezebox.com" option).
Anyway, the Radio worked OK yesterday and this morning, and after all the troubles tonight, seems to be behaving OK at the moment.
Squeezebox reminds me of the old nursery rhyme my dad used to recite: "when she was good, she was very, very good, and when she was bad she was horrid!"

Same here (while listening to an internet radio station). Network wi-fi icon shows red, minimal menus on the Radio (no favorites, now playing did not work etc), and the radio did not respond well. Yet, controlling it using an Android phone worked (the favourites could be selected and were played the radio). Ergo the network was up and running (as diagnostics confirmed).

smithc got it right, a factory reset would be required to weed out any network or firmware bugs.

Well Logan, sadly the original problem seems to have returned. Tonight Slacker stopped and "Skip" would not get it going again. My Boom display says "Stopped" or "400 Bad Request" (followed by a long Slacker URL), and my Radio also reports "400 Bad Request," etc. I tried hitting the "Play" and "Skip" button on both devices and couldn't get Slacker going again. I hit one of my presets on the Radio to switch to Pandora. I've just now used the web version remote control to switch the Radio back to Slacker and it's playing.
So I'm not convinced the issue is completely resolved. :-(

smithc,
Slacker not playing correctly is a different issue than the Radio displaying a red icon for WiFi problems.

I have the same issue for the last week or so, both my squeezebox radios are with red wireless logo from time to time, not even a factory reset will help, I have a working wlan for all other devices, I even set up an other AP just to rule out the existing one.
I talked to friends who also has this problem the last week/weeks

I have an issue since the update of the server to 7.7.2 which forced the radio to upgrade and the boom. They both now buffer all the time which never happened before. The signal is at 80%. I also noticed that it sometimes will not again connect to the wifi until it is completely removed from a power source or reset.
Other days it's fine!
So I am at a loss, I do not have the same problem if I cable connect it. My iphone and blackberries stay connected and stream fine all the time so I would have thought I could rule out the wifi router.
The media server says all connections are ok when i check. I have tested the connection using network test within the radio and can do 1.5Mb with no errors.

LeeUK,
Tried a complete system/network reboot including LMS computer and router (just unplug router)?
Also, try connecting your Radio to MySqueezeBox.com (not your local LMS server), play some stations, see if buffer issue goes away.
Radio > Settings > Advanced > Networking > "switch to MySB.com"
