iPad keeps loosing Linn DS/DSM and/or Library
- Setup the Wireless connection (Router/Wireless Access Point) to Apples Recommended settings
- The key point to Security (WPA2 Personal - AES)
- Check stability with a PC
- Check the PC connected to the Network using Wifi
- & Check the PC with a wired LAN
- This will tell you if it is an unstable WiFi connection or only links to iPad operation

iPad/PC connected via WiFi cannot see Linn DS but works on Internet
- Some Routers will allow Guest WiFi access and allow Wifi connections to access the Internet but not allow the Wireless device to see anything on the LAN.
- Read the Manual and check your Router is not configured for Guest access. (This is a different setup for every Manufacturer).
Any Music streams keep muting when broadcast via WiFi to the Linn DS/DSM
- We have found that some Routers/WAPs do not receive Music streams very well. Devices that we have tested and appear to work in our environment are listed here
Note: Different firmware versions may produce different results, so we have included the tested firmware version
