Problems with Bluesound Vault and PC app finding Node2 that are wireless

I have not had any issues with my BlueSound Node 2 dropping out, or any of my other streaming devices (Roku, Oppo, Marantz, etc.) since I upgraded my router a little over a year ago.  I spent about $200 on the router and that fixed a lot of issues I'd been having, other than devices sometimes not seeing each other because they auto-connected to a different SSID after a power or internet outage.  I can stream 4K content to the same location where my Node 2 is sitting.  It could be your Node, but I'd look elsewhere first.

@bubba12 & big_greg - tell us about your system - is it wireless, hardwire LAN?  what router are you using?   What is your signal strength if you are wireless?   Are yo on a Windows 10 Box, Apple, or Lynx?

I just noticed that a new upgrade is available as of today for the Node2.  I'll install that and let you all know the results. 

I have filed help tickets about this matter before and BS has been pretty quick on answering.   They were pretty slow on responses over the holidays, though.  

I hate to say this but my old Logitech Squeezebox, which has to be at least 8 to 10 years old, never has a problem.   It is on the network every single time and never loses its connection to the wireless router.  It does simply stop playing every now and then, as if someone pushed the pause button, but it never loses the network.

@spatialking I have D-Link DIR-890LR router. The only thing in my house that is wired is my PC. I have a WAP in my office which is in the next room and another WAP in my living room where my main system is. It’s not very far from the router, maybe 20 feet. I have the repeater on the other side of the house in my bedroom. My laptops, tablets, TV, AVP, Oppos, BlueSounds, Roku, etc. all are wireless.

Signal strength is about -35 to -45 in all the locations where I have wireless devices. My PC is running Win 10 Pro.

I just picked up a used Node 2 and set it up in my bedroom last night and was listening to Sgt. Peppers MQA on Tidal with no issues.

I just did the newest update today.  Usually when they offer a new update soon after a previous one it is to fix something that the previous update broke, but this made things worse 

I finally got the Bluesound app to find the missing Node, did a upgrade, rebooting everything, and for now, it seems to be working.   

One thing I did discover, the hard way of course, is after an upgrade one has to do a manual warm reboot of the system via the diagnostics menu.   Simply cycling power is not sufficient.  

However, my old Logitech Squeezebox Touch fires right up after every power fluctuation, glitch, or whatever.   It simply starts playing right where it left off, as if it was an analog FM tuner and that has at least 9 year old wireless technology in it.   Gotta love it.
