if this helps in any way....here is what my experience was:
With the Xt8 routers, the SB radios did connect just fine...I mean to their wifi APs. It played music also just fine.....but only for a few minutes. After that the APs disconnected the radios. In the router's logs, there were messages saying something like that the AP went offline....yeah, very strange. I do not think there is anything wrong with the SB radios themselves. I guess that router thought that the SB radios were no longer in range or something and disconnected them. Funny enough, the logs showed that the SB radios were trying to reconnect, but the router did not allow that. I think I have pasted the logs up here somewhere....or maybe in the other thread at the other website (linked above also). I also like the portability of these radios...we use them on battery all the time. Needless to say, we also love them here and want them to last forever! Every day, they are the first thing we switch on, play NPR on them all day long and the last thing, usually, we turn off. rajdude wrote: > My take is our beloved devices are now super old devices and have > compatibility issues with newer routers. > > You could try disabling WiFi6 (if you do not need it, e.g. if you really > do not have any WiFi6 capable client).....that may resolve the > problem......like it did for my XT8 pair.
