Is there no fix for the drop outs and the disappearance of the speaker from my wifi network?

I have two of these on my network, using Airplay software. The wifi radio on this device is weak, so you need a strong signal. I have a large home, so I use wifi repeaters and place them near the speaker. Netgear has several good wall plug repeater models, starting at ~$35. Simple to set up. Also, as with any streaming set up, you need plenty of wifi bandwidth.

My router started doing the same thing - random signal drops for a short period, but enough to lose printer and scanner connections. Suggest you call their 800# - sorry don't have it on me - you should have received a welcome email from Mediabridge with the #. They'll arrange for you to get a replacement unit. They stand behind their product - good people. That said, if my next unit has the same issues we'll be having a money-back conversation! Good luck.

I never experienced any detuning problems and don't know if it is an issue with M-Audio. But given that it completely shut down on me, it is no longer in my equipment arsenal.

There is an alternative set up method available, assuming you don't have a firewall. But if you've contacted Bose and not gotten the issue resolved, it could be the Wifi card in the device itself. I own three units and had to exchange my Portable unit for another one after exhausting all other options. Bose said the Wifi card was faulty. The replacement connected without any problem.

try download the driver for the wifi. but it won't solve the problem 100%. also upgrade to windows 8.1

Have you tried this volume fix for the magicJack?http://mjcheck.low.li/2013/07/volume-fix-for-magicjack-plus-with-router/

I just purchased this radio and it has been dropping the wifi signal as well. The network signal shows blue so I'm assuming from miket's post that there is a problem with the radio connecting to the squeezebox network. Funny thing is though I have a squeezebox boom as well and it never has problems connecting like this one does. I think there is something wrong with these radios and from the reviews I have read it seems to get worse over time. I think I will send mine back as well and just get another boom.

Try switching speaker wires.....if still not working,it is most likely the unit itself.

Mine does the same thing if I go out of range without dropping the connection first when I get back in range it won't reconnect unless I turn the speakers off then repair.

hi-- yeah, I am seeing this as well, but I was able to press the "speaker" button and the sound comes back. it's really kind of frustrating, I am trying to figure out what to do about it as well.

Unfortunately, the speaker is very quirky and loses the wi-fi connection easily. I unplug for 10 seconds, plug back in and turn it on. It usually finds the signal and connects.

yea sound is ghosting, just unpair one of the devices. both devices are giving the same sound out.

I would suggest you return them and buy from a different vendor, I've had mix results with MK808b's from different vendors. I currently own 3 MK808b's and they all connect to my wifi and maintain connection with no issues, I returned a couple that would connect and disconnect randomly, the wifi signal would go up and down. Good luck to you.

I've dealt with the same problem. My brother and I both share the speaker between the two of us. Sometimes my phone will not connect to it and gives me the same lame excuse that you received. You just have to make sure the previous device you used has Bluetooth turned off completely and it is entirely out of range. Then you go ahead and turn on the speaker, turn the Bluetooth on on the device you want to use, and then connect it when the device reads the signal from the speaker. That's how we took care of the problem. It's a little tedious and absurd, but it's the system we use to make it work.

If you feel it is interfering with wi-fi then do the following: Play music through the speakers. While playing music unplug the power from the wi-fi router wait 10 seconds and replug it. The router will search for a non interfering signal. Another thing you can try is to re-pair the transmitter to the speakers. Check how to pair in the manual. I've learned to that if you set your router to channel 1 or 11 you get less interference from 2.4 GHz devises because channel 1 & 11 are narrower channels.

No...On my case, the both wifi and wired connections failed at the same time, no way you can make the speakers to sound again. If you really want a real nice sound at audiophile level, you should check out the KEF X300A Digital Hi-Fi Speaker System. It's the true audiophile speakers for the computers and MP3 player. Google the reviews on the speakers on you own.

Hi Don Not sure about the WiFi speaker, but I have connected a set of computer speakers to the headphone jack of the TV and that works quite well. Sounds a lot better with some bass. Walt
