2.12.5 and the problem returns

[kg.fredrik.klein]

To go back on the topic (we kinda derived the last posts, eh); I confirm that when I stop pinging the Phantom, after a while it'll disconnect. The ethernet port is still UP, but no IP traffic goes on. As long as I resume to try pinging, after a while it'll come back and work fine— as long as I keep pinging it. Weird.

Hey, 

I think I've got most problems as everybody have with the Phantoms, but I recently installed a professional wifi-system from Ubiquiti on our property and since then all of my problems are gone. Before installing this system I tried a lot of different wifi-systems and with the same firmware on the speakers, they behaved differently with the different wifi-systems. So I do think that many of the problems users are experiencing have to do with the wifi at least since Firmware 2.10.00...so I you are experiencing problems it might be a good idea to invest in a better Wifi-system. The router does have an impact on the ethernet connection as well....

My system that today consists of 5 x Phantom Gold and 2 x Reactor 900 works just as well as our Sonos system (which I must agree is SO much better at software than Devialet...but lacks the sound) and all but 1 is connected via Wifi. 

Just an idea for that ones of you that have been just as frustrated with Devialet as I have....

I am inclined to agree that WiFi in the house may be an issue for me.  I essentially have a Deco MESH coupled with an apple time capsule which I use as a dedicated router solely to music and the phantoms.  I may have to revisit this issue.

I had 4 apple airport extremes before and had a lot of issues with the speakers but after I changed them, Ive had very few issues so that might help you!
