Hi all

Can anybody help , I have a beamaster 5 running through  Tplink as you all no the only why to put music on the Bm is to connect by using the connect to server in the finder window using the IP address .The BM does say it is not connect but , I can play internet radio .

Using the go to server and the IP address just does not work , I have called up the IP address on the BM .

I have tried the way the dealer has given me , its listed in this forum some where , and it does not work. I have a IP address finder on my iPad and I can see the BM and it’s IP when I type the address in the go server window it just comes up with the some message .

Any ideas as I can no longer load new music ?

I have another weird issue. On the Beosound 5 LCD panel in the setting menu, it shows the network connection as "No" but when I look at the connection in the service menu, it shows that Beomaster 5 is connected on the home Wifi Network.

On the Beoconnect application, The app detects the Beomaster 5 but when I click on it to connect, I get the following message

"Please check the IP address / computer name, password or network connection".

Any guidance....

I have the same problem for more than a year with my Beomaster5/Beosound5.
I can play internetradio, but in the service menu I see that the server connection says: no.  I have tried all the suggestions given bij the forum but still now nothings seems to work. It should be not to difficult for B&O to help the BM5 owners. I keep hoping for a solution.

 

 

Does anyone have a solution for this? I'm encountering the same issue..

You can mount the BM-disk on your Mac. 

Open a Terminal and run the following commands:

mkdir -p ~/mnt/beomaster

mount_smbfs //BM-USER:xxxxxx@ipaddress/BM-SHARE\$ ~/mnt/beomaster

The first command is needed only once (to create a directory called "beomaster" within a directory "mnt" in your user home directory). 
With the second command you actually mount the BM-disk on that "beomaster" directory. Replace the xxxxxx with the BM-USER password on the BM, and replace "ipaddress" with the IP address of the BM. 
After you have run that command, you will find the BM-disk contents in directory "beomaster" under "mnt", for instance with Finder. There you will see directory "Music" that contains the ripped music files. Copy your new music files in there. 
When finished, to unmount that disk, if you want, run the following command in Terminal:

umount ~/mnt/beomaster
