I'm currently starting to change my classic B&O setup and add wireless technology. Last year I bought an Avant-garde 55" and connected it  with a NL/ML converter to the old installation in my house. Since B&O  is adding now more and more wireless speakers I bought a Beosound 1 for one of my rooms. 

Unfortunately I'm unable to connect this speaker to the Multiroom configuration. I followed all the steps. Connected the speaker to my phone and when I open the BeoMusic app, I can't see the speaker and so I'm unable to select it. Has anybody an idea what to do here? The a ant is connected with a LAN cable to my network and I also switched on the wireless function.

Is your bs1 connected to your wireless internet?

Is your bs1 connected to the same wireless internet as your phone? I've had some problems when my essence is connected to my 5ghz network, but my phone is on the 2.4ghz (and vice-versa).

Can you see the avant and blc on your phone?

Hopefully this helps a bit

If you are an iDevice user, this might help looking into your configuration:

Hi Barchen

Congrats on your BS1.

This is what I would check:

1. BeoSetup app on your phone/ipad (if you have it) and see if the BS1 is a "product on your network" .  Make sure your phone/ipad is on your wireless network and not the 3G/4G network

2. if yes, go to step 4 below

3. If No, then you will have to add it to your network as per the instructions in the box.  On the inside of the BS1 box there was a internet link URL - type that in your browser - I found that setup shown that way was pretty easy 

4. In the BS1 in BeoSetup . Touch > Settings > Beolink > Link to other Products > in the primary product drop down select the Avant 

5. Now it should work

I went thru all the steps. For whatever reason I do not see the BS1 in my network. I'm in the same network. Bluetooth works fine but when I try to find the BS1 in the Beosetup app, the device is not shown. Also in the BeoMusic app it's not listed.

I recommend a factory reset. Use a paperclip to reset pushing into the small hole under the BS1.

Something must have went wrong in the initial setup.

And if you do , on the inside of the box is a URL on one of the flaps - start here with the set up after your reset

Thanks for the support. I found the little whole and initiated a reset. Now my iPhone could find the wireless airplay speaker and I was able to add it into the Multiroom setup. Works fine after I changed the delay time to 200ms. The box is now synchronized to the Avant. I can play now music from my apple tv4 and listen on the BS1.

Also I added today the brand new beosound M5. Everything works great now.😁
