Having run the network analyzer all afternoon and seeing no glitches,
and having no LONG Ethernet cables on hand I decided to have a CLOSE
look at my system wiring.

Silly me I found a BAD BNC to phono adapter in the digital circuit.

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Transporter dropouts

2018-10-27 Thread bpa


If the Transporter output buffer runs out of data (e.g. due to network
issue) then there will be a buffer underrun signalled.  
Are there any messages in the server.log ?
Can you attach a DAC to digital output  to test to see if the problem is
in the analog output stage ?

This suggests it is something with the Transporter itself or the
internal part of your network (and not the external internet connection
itself).  Any way to temporarily connect transporter using ethernet to
determine whether the WIFI is the issue?

I am getting the dropouts on my server as well as internet radio.

BTW I replaced the power supply around Feb. 0f 2017 with the suggested
unit as in the link posted above.

I just downloaded a WiFi analyzer and ran it for about 10 minutes and
saw no dropouts.

I'll next run the transporter and the analyzer at the same time.

correct. this is normal.   Do you get dropouts with both local music
files and streaming (internet radio or spotify, etc.)?

The dropouts are very short ... less than a second in length.

Once in a while I can hear a clicking from within the transporter.

I often wonder if it might be the modem or router but I cannot detect it
on any of my many connected devices.
