While logged into your router, it is also a good idea to "reserve" the IP address that is assigned to each TOUCH so they always get the same IP address from your router after a restart. If you wanted to use a different Router, you'd need to plug it into one of the ethernet ports on your existing modem/router, and then setup the new router for WIFI with channel you want and SSID info and password you want to use.

The nice thing about a mobile app is you can walk around to see the effect on your and other's signal. Q3 - as I mentioned before, Networking and equipment is not my strong suit, but my dad had used a Asus RT-N66U (the three antenna style) to cover his aircraft hanger (his hobby) so I bought one and it was a substantial improvement over my DSL provided gateway. Our area has since gotten fiber optic, so I bought a Asus RT-AC66U. The nice thing is both are reasonable, cheap and plentiful on ebay, and you can use them as a repeater, that is your modem communicates to the second (repeater) modem to your device, effectively allowing your touches to be "closer". So you could buy one, try it out, and if still not happy, either use it as a repeater with your dsl modem, or just buy another. If you do decide to go this route, and your dsl supplied equipment is a modem/router combo (gateway), look to see if you can put their gateway into bridge mode (effectively disables their modem) or, just leave as is and turn off their wifi radios in their settings. I had dsl for years and I had both setups. Then depending on your living situation (own or rent, basement or not) there is always running an ethernet cable. Not something we look to do, but my sb's that are on ethernet (along with my roku) are just rock solid.

Windows, macOS, Linux? The answer to your first question depends on that. As to the channel, any WiFi analyser will show you the channel, but you should also see it in the settings of your router (might be set to "Auto", but the actual channel used should be shown somewhere - maybe under "Status" or "Advanced").

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Cannot get Touch to connect
I agree with everything that garym has advised, but, with 15% - 20% signal strength seen at the touch, you are operating in the unstable/unpredictable/unreliable environment. Why not just improve it and gain reliability? Do all that Garym said, but also consider getting a better router (used less that $100USD on ebay), use ethernet if possible, get a repeater, use another router as a repeater, use a powerline extender, anything. I am no network expert, but understand physics, signal strength and signal to noise (as an analog analogy). Try to tune in that distant FM station - works fine one day, static the next, gone the next. You want to strive for "much better than necessary" rather than "barely enough". I don't mean to preach, honestly (although it sounds like that :)). I was trying to run a receiver in a detached building at 25 - 40% signal strength and it drove me nuts. I got a better router, moved the router, moved the receiver, signal strength improved, it's now fine. The receiver I have in my basement is ethernet, it's fine. I have three touches, two on wifi with excellent signal strength, they are fine. The touches are better wifi devices and the receivers, but the same laws of physics apply. Make your network better than it needs to be to give you reliability Jim Redrum's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112813 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

If a neighbor acquired a new WIFI router (particularly some of the high powered things available these days), that could have created interference with your WIFI that wasn't there before. Also make sure you set your Router to use for WIFI only either channel 1, 6, or 11. There are free programs you can get for your computer or smart phone that can locate all nearby WIFI networks and tell you what channel they are using. Put your Router WIFI channel on one of those 3 channels that the closest power routers are NOT using. p.s. and sometimes the interference is not a new nearby wifi router. Could be a WIFI camera, baby monitor, RING doorbell, etc. I've read that people have had lots of interference created by these things. *Home:* VBA 4TB (2.5) -or- rPi4B/pCP6.1/4TB>LMS 7.9.3>Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* VBA 3TB (2.4) -or- rPi4B/pCP6.1/4TB>LMS 7.9.1>Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (ethernet, Radio WIFI) *Office:* Win10(64)>LMS 7.9.3>Squeezelite *The Wild: *rPi3B+/pCP4.0, hifiberry Dac+Pro, 4TB USB (LMS & Squeezelite) *Controllers:* iPhone11 & iPadAir2 (iPeng), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win10(64) *Files:* ripping: dbpa > FLAC; post-rip: mp3tag, PerfectTunes; Streaming: Spotify garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112813 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

If that works reliably focus on your wifi. You can also download a copy of squeezelite-x to your PC. Besides being useful for listening while at the PC, this gives you a "player" that is connecting to LMS, but not via the network. Doesn't help a netork problem but it tells you that LMS and a player are working together. I have mentioned this before, forgive me, but I battled, both for myself and my friend, installing duet receivers in marginal wifi signal strength locations (say below 60%). I could never get them to work reliably. They might work for an hour, a day, a few days, but inevitably I had to make a change. For my friend I moved his router and got him a touch. For myself, I ran ethernet cable. If you identify the problem as wifi related, the one other suggestion that pays other benefits too is if you are using the router/modem that your isp is providing, buy a better one, even used, like a netgear or asus.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Cannot get Touch to connect
Given that you have two Touch players with exactly the same symptoms all of a sudden, I don't suspect something has gone wrong with both TOUCH players. I suspect something on the network or WIFI. You say you've done factory resets of the TOUCH players. I might try this again, but when setting up, connect one to the Router via ethernet and connect without WIFI (you'll have the options of doing this when setting up). Not for permanent use, but just to see if you can get the Touch to see your LMS again. *Home:* VBA 4TB (2.5) -or- rPi4B/pCP6.1/4TB>LMS 7.9.3>Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* VBA 3TB (2.4) -or- rPi4B/pCP6.1/4TB>LMS 7.9.1>Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (ethernet, Radio WIFI) *Office:* Win10(64)>LMS 7.9.3>Squeezelite *The Wild: *rPi3B+/pCP4.0, hifiberry Dac+Pro, 4TB USB (LMS & Squeezelite) *Controllers:* iPhone11 & iPadAir2 (iPeng), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win10(64) *Files:* ripping: dbpa > FLAC; post-rip: mp3tag, PerfectTunes; Streaming: Spotify garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112813 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

Have you changed your WIFI settings in any way (especially set 2.4 GHz to 40 MHz bandwidth)? I've been struggling with my Touch suddenly not connecting reliably before discovering the cause.

That's typically the case when the players are connected to a DIFFERENT LMS server (or at least they had been and think they still are). I recall in the past having some trouble in LMS webGUI getting the players "back", but was able to use iPeng on my iphone to do this. This may not be a problem with newer versions of LMS, but that's the first thing I thought about. *Home:* VBA 4TB (2.5) -or- rPi4B/pCP6.1/4TB>LMS 7.9.3>Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* VBA 3TB (2.4) -or- rPi4B/pCP6.1/4TB>LMS 7.9.1>Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (ethernet, Radio WIFI) *Office:* Win10(64)>LMS 7.9.3>Squeezelite *The Wild: *rPi3B+/pCP4.0, hifiberry Dac+Pro, 4TB USB (LMS & Squeezelite) *Controllers:* iPhone11 & iPadAir2 (iPeng), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win10(64) *Files:* ripping: dbpa > FLAC; post-rip: mp3tag, PerfectTunes; Streaming: Spotify garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112813 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Cannot get Touch to connect
I used to see this routinely with duets/receivers connected to wifi, especially with a marginal wifi signal strength at the device. This mostly went away when I connected them to ethernet. My touch's... not sure if I have seen this, but the one touch I have on wifi is close to the router When this would happen I would reset the player, reconnect to the wifi, then LMS. Have you tried this? Also try connecting via ethernet, as a test? In addition to sbf's question, if when trying my music fails, will it go to mysb.com and play?
