Hi

First i had a turn on problem and now this.

When i start the radio it has lost the wifi connection and i have to
renew it every time i want to use it.
This problem started after i had updated my Asus RT-AC58U a couple of
days ago. What have i missed? Or what could have changed?
I thought it was "keep connection alive" option in the iOS app i had
turned off but no it was not.

Yes it is, if I restart it everything is fine until I want to use it
again.

Is there any rules one must follow in the router settings? I’ve recently
changed my router from netgear to asus. So all old settings are gone.
Does the radio support all new protocols etc etc?!

Is that something I must change in the router? Can’t find anything about
this in the settings.

You need to look at the problem and get some idea of underlying issue.

For example, Is the Radio losing connection due bad signal, due IP
change, incompartibility (e.g. wrong MTU size)

Thinsgs to checlk as more hard info is needed
1. Check nerwork signal level on Radio
2. What are Radio diagnostics
3. Check network speed test
4. What is IP address of radio before and after reconnection ?
5. Any detail in the rouiter log ?
6. Turn off "fancy" router features such as channel bonding

change, incompartibility (e.g. wrong MTU size)
1. Check nerwork signal level on Radio
It is very good it's just 2-3 meters from the router.
2. What are Radio diagnostics
It can't be used due to my server does not support it it says when i was
trying to start it.
3. Check network speed test
It's fine and fast.
4. What is IP address of radio before and after reconnection ?
I've set it to one specifik ip all the time.
5. Any detail in the rouiter log ?
I don't have logging on :) I will check that and see what it says.
6. Turn off "fancy" router features such as channel bonding
The router is new so i've not turned on anything fancy or anything i
dont understand.
Make sure Router is using latest firmware - just in case there is a fix
for something.
I did and that's what started my problem, after i had updated the router
firmware this problem started.
Ac58U feature-wise looks like an update to RTN66U which I have used for
many years without problem.

That is not the measurement given by the radio menu

The results are helpful.

The reason for checking the Network Diagnostic menu is sometime the
antenna in Radio gets broken. The 100% and some of the other details
seem to indicate that wifi is OK.
The appearance of the address as 34.243.12.154 (amazon address) and
34.244.221.118 (mysqeezebox.com) mysqueezebox.com seems to indicate
that DNS is working.
Do you use DHCP ?

The answers to the test indicate that your radio is connected to
mysqueezebox.com and not a local LMS sever.

I don't know your setup -
Do you have a local LMS server on your home network (server version is
shown in WebUI Setting/Info tab)
If you have a local LMS server - go to Radio top level menu (home
button) and select My Music, connect to local LMS and then run Server
Info menu again.

If it works then it looks like the issue is associated with interference
from other strong wifi neighbours or possibly devices (e.g. faulty
microwave).

Come back if problem returns.
