Most likely Network issue. Nothing to do with the Duet per se and certainly not an issue with mySB.com. It could be the WiFi breaks down but the internet is still connected Or It could be that the WiFi is ok but the internet goes down You need to find out which. You need some basic network diagnostics Do you know any of his internal IP addresses?
