Is it not possible to connect the Boom with an Ethernet cable?

[Zombie]

I use Wi-Fi but want to go over to a cable connection instead, but Boom refuses.
It starts and then just hangs or restarts.
Any ideas?

It should work ... otherwise there would not be an Ethernet socket ...

Maybe time for a Xilinx reset

If it does not then more info needed - e.g.
is it a Gigabit link?
Tried switching the cable?

Swtiched from a gigabit to a 300 mbps and basically the same, but same behaviour, almost.
I have tried many years ago, probably not with the same cable...
Tried the Boom cable on my PC, everything fine.

How are you trying to connect?

You need to press and hold the back button on the remote or boom for a few seconds, when you get into the set-up menu scroll to set up networking > connect to ethernet network.
