Fritz!Box 7530 & Fritz!OS 8 & Roon not compatible? [Answer: MacOS 15.1 is the culprit]

Hello everyone,

I don’t see all of my audio devices every day.

My Auralic Aries G1 and two HomePod speakers are missing every day.

Restarting Roon or restarting the devices unfortunately doesn’t help.

Only after I restart my Fritz!Box 7530 with version Fritz!OS 8 are all the devices displayed again.
Until the next day… Then the devices are missing again and only a restart helps.

Does anyone else have this problem?

What OS are you running your Roon Server on? This could also be a relevant factor in your issue rather than the version of Fritz!OS.

FWIW, my 7530 is still using version 7.59 and I’m not seeing this issue.

I have now restarted Roon again:
no change → devices not visible

Then I switched the WiFi on my iMac with macOS 15.1 off and on again:
see! Devices visible again! :slight_smile:

I think it seems to be some kind of WiFi problem.
Either the iMac or the Fritz Box is the problem.

Ah, MacOS 15.1… That’s likely to be the guilty party. See:
