May have found the problem, seems there was a problem with one of the Mesh WiFi devices, this has no been reset and has a good connection, I’ll see how it goes.

Its a bugger geting old & forgetfull 😥

What local WiFi band and channel is in use by the Roam (the channel-width might be helpful too)? Do you have the same issue when playing music audio over a Bluetooth connection to the Roam?

I am not using Bluetooth, but I can try it, however the problem is intermittant. I checked WiFi settings, I use a mesh setup and all other devices Have no issues. The firmware is upto date on all devices.

Maybe reboot your router/mesh setup and try the Roam on your 2.4Ghz WiFi band only, (using a non-overlapping channel 1, 6 or 11) as that band is further reaching and more penetrating than the 5Ghz WiFi band …and to rule out issues on the WAN side, play some music that’s held on local storage and just see what happens in that case.
