When the unit loses power, or if you move it somewhere temporarily for a party, do you have to set up the Wifi again?

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.

No you do not have to reset up the wifi if it loses power. The unit retains the information. I have moved it to multiple locations and never had any problems with it working and it was easy to set up out of the box.

No you don't have to set up the wifi again. Can move the speaker anywhere you like. Power loss also not a problem.

No, you do not as long as your wifi signal will reach where you reinstall it. You just have to hold down the on/off switch for about three seconds and then swithch it on. It found my wifi from my den to one of my bedrooms and it just took a few seconds to recognize my iPhone and it was playing my playlist.

Simple answer : no. No way to disconnect from wifi, no power off. Unplugging works, a bit of a pain, no?

NO battery, Wi-Fi connection needs power that a battery cannot supply [not for long any how ...]

That has never happened to me, so I can't answer specifically. However, if I unplug it, it must be reset again, so I assume the same would be true of a power failure.

No. Messages already recorded are not lost, but the unit won't work if the power fails.

Nope! I have a WiFi router and I run the TV , two laptops, an iPod and a Kindle off it, sometimes all of it is running at the same time! :)

Nope. The device does require to be plugged in. Once unplugged, it will need to be paired up with your devices again once it's replugged in.

On my unit if the power plug gets pulled when it is on it comes back on. So if the unit is own a power strip and the power strip gets turned off the unit will power back up. I keep my unit on my desk but keep it powered off unless I need to use it.

I own this item. and yess you set it up to the ethernet, just once. aftet that once connected to power it will link back up to the last wifi

no, because it requires a wifi signal. If you want something when the power goes out, I would recomend a mifi from your wireless company.

the power light comes on when there is re-engaged power. The settings won't be re-iniated though. You have to manually slam the thing against the wall and call it a day. Its a one hit wonder, and I hit it once and wondered why I bought the dern thing! :)

No, the unit will appear in your list of possible Wifi connections, you have to click on it, that's your "wifi".

I don't think so. It will reset itself during a power failure (or being unplugged) back to the state it was in when it lost power.

I have had several brief power outings at my house and I have not had to reload the settings. You can save a config file to your computer in case you need to restore it to make it easy.

Thank you for the response! Absolutely correct, feed it a wireless signal and you are good to go!

Without power, the master/wall unit will function as a phone but won't support the wireless part of it. So yes, you have to plug the base in but also yes, you can still make phone calls during a power outage but only with the base unit.

Yes, if the computer sleeps the wifi will not reconnect when it resume. In many cases, I need manually reconnect.
