I’ve experienced similar problems with a Core that is constantly on Deezer or Airplay. Every 24 hours or so it will stop being accessible or playable until you power cycle it.

Thanks for posting the information. Glad it’s not just me. However, every 24 h would drive me to distraction. Once a week or less frequently, I can cope with. Anyway, I wrapped my Core in aluminium foil 8 days ago. So far, so good…

did anybody try to use a fixed IP address for the BS Core?

or

without fixed IP address: what happens if the router’s lease time for an IP address is extended to for example 1 week

or

if WiFi-connected: try to push the Core to the 2.4GHz and to a fixed channel (f.e. 11)

I find it very odd that this problem still happens on ethernet as this sounds like it’s interference over wifi?

Here’s an update on my Beosound Core repeatedly crashing. After several months of discussion with my local B&O dealer who, in turn, was in discussion with B&O product Support, I believe the problem has been fixed. According to the dealer, a new software version for the Beosound Core was released by Bang & Olufsen at the end of October. According to the release information, this update specifically addressed several connectivity and stability issues. Based on the fact that my Core has now been running perfectly for the past couple of months (as opposed to crashing once or twice every week or two), it seems that the Core software was the problem.

Sighs of relief… 😃
