Hello All

I have had a Beosound 8 for about 10 years it has worked seamlessly over the wifi however since changing my router I cannot seem to reconnect it.

Any thought on this would be appreciated.

The Beosound 8 never had a wifi/network connection option.

When I had my A8, it was running on wifi - so that should not be a problem.
The problem is your new router/the settings.
Hard to say anything, when one does not know the brand, the settings, the strenghts of the signal.

After resetting it, I would try connecting it with a cable - that some times helps and can give you access to the menu for the wifi password.
Use the Bang & Olufsen app to set it up.

A8 is 2.4 ghz. Is your new network only running 5ghz maybe?
