Duet receiver keeps restarting

[metropole]

After coming back form a two week trip I was able to play music for 2 seconds then receiver appears to restart (Wifi button goes to red, blinks, eventually back to white). However, when I hit play again, I get music for 2-30 seconds, same cycle.

Is this a HW problem?

That is very likely a power adapter that's past it, third party replacements can usually be found on Amazon, Ebay and such. With a bit of care you kan often use a universal adapter also as long as you ensure to get one with the correct voltage, power output, connector size and polarity. Note that the Receiver has a different power adapter than the other models of that era.

I agree that it's a failing power supply.

so, the original part number is: PSA05R-090 (9VDC 0.56 A)

I just went to Radio Shack with my old power supply and said I needed a 9 volt power supply with a connector like the one on the OEM power supply. They have a power supply that you can set the voltage between several choices and it has swap-able connectors. The connector doesn't quite fit as tightly as the OEM connector, but it works. The power supply is rated at up to 1 Amp so that more than covers the power needs of the Duet Receiver.

Replaced power supply and all is well again.
