Hi Stevo,

Mesh systems are sometimes a problem with stationary System. I would recommend to use a professional system (Netgear Professional or Ubiquiti). Those systems can link devices to special Wireless Access Points in the Mesh System.

The other try would be to increase the buffer. The problem with mesh that is only setup wirelessly is that the clients connect to the mesh system and the distance to the router gets longer and longer. I suppose your mesh access points (AP) are not directly wired to the router.

The logic then is

• Router -> AP 1 -> B&O device
• Router -> AP 1 -> AP2 -> B&O device
• Router -> AP 1 -> AP2 -> AP 3 -> B&O device

you shorten this distance when connecting them directly to the router.

• Router -> AP 1 -> B&O device
• Router -> AP 2 -> B&O device
• Router -> AP 3 -> B&O device

I hope this helps.

Hi Stevo,

I am using the Linksys Velop System. It is consisted of two MX5300 nodes. The parent node is connected to a 24-port linksys switch and the child node is connected to the parent via a cat6 ethernet cable. I have no issues with beolink multiroom (all of my b&o products are older than the motzart platform) apart the usual issues with beosound moment and sound drops when it is joined by older products like my beosystem 4 or my beovplay v1.

I would like to strong recommend that you wire all of your products instead of using wi-fi. In case they can not be wired try to put a wired node as close as possible. Mesh network is very convenient for me especially due to the fact that it creates one network but if you prefer you can divide to 2.4 and 5.

My old setup was using a linksys router and linksys access point which worked fine but I had to use almost one access point per room (my house is 270 sq m + the pool area) and sometimes switch manually from access point to access point. What I can confirm is that during summer when we might be around 12-15 people in the pool area the velop system works great (it is wifi 6) with iphones and ipads. I am using the beoliving app to control all of my b&o products and I have no issues.

Morning,

I changed to a mesh system but with out success. Some B&O units worked as expected but some did not work at all or behaved very strange. The whole system was perceived as unstable. I changed to Ubiquiti instead after I had talked to several B&O dealers and after that it works better than ever. Before the mesh-system I had a weaker Wi-Fi system and the B&O system needed to be cold restarted now and then, but after the upgrade to Ubiquiti it seldom happen. Very stable, it was worth the extra cost. 

I have an old ML-system together with a NL-system and it is amazing that it all works together as one system today. Though I don't have any unit based on the Mozart platform yet. It will come for certain after the upgrade of Beolink Multiroom.
