Connect:AMP keeps cutting out...all components hardwired

I’ve noticed others with the same problem...so I anticipate the answer may be obsolescence (planned or otherwise), but looking for official support here if possible.

All components have been hardwired and in place for over 5 years (except for the newer connect models, which replaced older connect:amps not supported by S2.

The Diag file number is 2005163756.

Many thanks if someone could review the diagnostics and LMK.

Hi @Gerald Harmon 

Welcome to the Sonos Community!

Thanks for the diagnostics - your Connect:AMP is experiencing issues with keeping up with the tasks given it. You will most likely experience this issue while playing from some music services, but not while playing others.

None of the mitigation steps I could advise will relate to your setup - the Connect:AMP is not in charge of managing STP for the system at large, it is not providing a network link to any other devices, and you already have both Crossfade and Shuffle disabled.

Although you will probably experience these issues each and every time that you play from specific sources (e.g. Spotify, iHeart Radio, NRK Radio, and, by the looks of the logs, Pandora), you may not experience any issues with playing other sources, including different online services, Line-In or while having the Connect:AMP as part of a group (ensure you do not choose it’s room first, or it will be in charge of group, making things worse).

I hope this helps.

I’d be lost without a fully functional router and WiFi system, on the other hand some are really hard for a geezer that only touches them a couple times a month to use. I went through quite a few before settling on pfSense running on a small PC and later a dedicated device as a happy medium.

I was overjoyed to see the offer of Fiber here came with the option of their router, their router in Bridge mode or just direct to my router.

For some folks I know a power button and a hidden factory-reset button are a bit beyond their skill level so I understand the “dumb it down” push too.

Hi @Stanley_4 

What? No love for the 172.16.0.0 /12 range?

None whatsoever - mostly because I always forget the numbers and range.

Update:  Still working well.  Fascinating turn of events.  Happy to have working units again.

Hi @Gerald Harmon 

the majority of all local IP addresses are very similar (my gateway address, for example, is 192.168.0.1 - likely the same as yours, which doesn’ really tell anyone anything). The other common range is 10.0.0.x.

What? No love for the 172.16.0.0 /12 range?

 

I seem to remember some early APPLE Airports in this range.

still working flawlessly. some acknowledgement of what occurred would be appropriate, IMO.  No knock on @Corry P, but someone at Sonos knows what happened and how it was resolved….

If nothing else, to give you the confidence to stay on the s2 upgrades wagon.

Hi @Gerald Harmon 

I should have some info to share on that soon - probably next week. 

I am glad to hear that your speakers are now performing better, though! Good News!
