    Radio wifi problems-MEGATHREAD!

    Apologies for the rather dramatic title...but looking around both here and on the official forum a fair few of us seem to be having problems with the radio and wifi.

    It would be useful I think if people could post their problems or indeed lack of problems with the radio and it's wifi.

    In brief...

    2 booms, 1 touch, 1 SB3 all connect, stay connected, stream individually and in sync without hiccup.

    Radio, since a month or so ago, connects and works as it should intermittently. It has good signal, there is no channel interference.

    Yesterday I reset my router and all was good, then this morning synced all players for radio first to disappear from LMS but was showing as connected to router but speed was 0 mbps!, Then dropped from router all together, I guess a reset would get it back again.

    Conclusion-issue with radio wifi and not my set up, possibly software related?

    Will crosspost to Logitech forum to see what that brings.

    No issues here with my 2 Radios wifi connections. There was a period a few months ago where I was seeing the red wifi icon frequently and had to restart the Radio to get connected, but it was around the same time that I discovered my router's antenna had broken. Since replacing my antenna, I have not had any wifi connection issues with my Radios. Not a one.

    Router is Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 running Tomato firmware 1.28.

    No wifi problems here either with my one Radio. It's connected to an old Netgear WGR614v3 router, which I have re-purposed as an extra access point for my Linksys WRT54GL router (running Tomato 1.25 firmware).

    I use two radios via wifi with no issues. Obviously, folks can have network issues, and there are many variables. At the moment at least, there seems to be no issues related to the radio itself.

    Great stuff guys, thanks for your comments, annoyingly mine was fine for a year or so. My problem coincides with getting a touch, surely coincidence?
