Almost certainly not the problem, but after installing a new router,
my backend wouldn't connect to my HDHR. I assumed it was because the
router firmware was doing something funny or different with the naming
(because I noticed that it regarding my backend name when connecting
from Windows).  So after my holiday vacation, I switched the new
router over to Tomato (open source firmware).  Problem remained.  Then
I rebooted my backend, which of course, fixed it.
