BeoLink Converter 1611 Innovative Configurations

question wifi setting beosound1 and beoplay m3
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 2, 2021 12:53So what you're suggesting is that it's not really the roaming part that is beneficial, but the fact that the B&O product stays connected to Wi-Fi even while in standby mode? This would make sense (assuming that without t…

Beolink Gateway ML sockets?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Feb 26, 2018 00:22Hi, The BLGW has two Masterlink sockets, one RJ45 and one legacy ML. Can both be used simultaneously, thereby effectively providing a "2-port ML distribution hub"? Or can only one socket be used at a time? -bab
