Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Meridian - Streaming Meridian 218 and IP Control App - Connection issue

Some 218 owners are experiencing an issue maintaining a connection with the iPad 'IP Control' app.
The app can show losing connection, then almost immediately the 218 shows up to be chosen again every 25 seconds or so.

Streaming music from Roon and Sooloos continues to play. It's just experienced from the iPad 'IP Control' app.

The issue is currently being investigated by Meridian.

As useful feedback, if you're using a 218 with the iPad IP Control App, could you post up:

1) How stable your connection is between iPad and 218?
2) If typing the 218's IP address into the 'Connect Manually' box makes any difference to the stability?
3) What broadband router you're using?
4) Are you using Sooloos or Roon?
5) Anything else you've found to be influencing the connection.
6) Any messages the IP Control app reports as connection is lost.

Question added 5th May
7) Which Model of iPad was being used at the time, and what iOS was it running? (Please list all iPad types you've tried.)

Additional Questions 5th May:
8) On a system showing the problem, during the 25 seconds that the connection IS present, does the 218 respond to commands from the app? For example, if the volume or source is changed, does the display on the app show the change?

9) Do you still get the same issue if you reconfigure your router or Wi-Fi Access Point to use another channel or band (2.4Ghz or 5Ghz)

Please post even if you have a stable connection, not just if you're having problems.

Many Thanks,

Rick
