Template:FAQ:Android Kazoo FAQ
Kazoo cannot find my Linn DS
In the Android Kazoo App you can select the network (call Subnets),that Kazoo will look for your Linn DS/DSM.
- Go into Kazoo settings
- Check the Subnets and the Linn DS address range is typically against the (wlan0) number. Select this and use the Android BACK button to go back into the Kazoo app
- You should now find your Linn DS/DSM.
On some phone it may switch this setting to the "mobile data" connection and not the Wifi connection.
If your phone supports this try:
- Open up Settings on your device
- Locate and tap "Data usage" (try using the search within settings)
- Locate the app you want to prevent using your data in the background (not all phone support this so do not worry if cannot find this option.)
- Scroll to the bottom of the app listing
- Tap to enable Restrict background data
If you are still having issue check that you are in the same network as the Linn DS:
- Repeat steps 1 & 2 from above and take note of the number, (the IP address) stated against '(wlan0)'
- Go to the Linn DS/DSM with your Linn IR handset. Point the handset to the and press AND HOLD the # button. The first value given is the Linn DS/DSM IP address. Take a note of this number.
- On a Sekrit DSM press the rear of the dial to bring up the ">Software update/Properties" page. Press the front of the dial to highlight "Properties" and then press the right of the select this page. Take a note of the IP Address on this page.
- Compare the number from the Linn DS/DSM and the Android Kazoo. Ignore the last number, the first three number should match each other otherwise the Kazoo app is on the wrong IP address range.
