Description Of Issue
Sometimes when my phone is attached to my gateway TP Link my roon android client cannot find the core. My pc which is hardwired to the TP Link gateway always can see the core. Given all hardware in my house runs on the same subnet what could be filtering out the discovery packets? I assume discovery is a udp protocol? Just doesn’t makes sense it would only happen on Android. My iPad in the same room never seems to have this problem. Thoughts on what to check?
When the Android device can’t find it one time there is an option to put in an IP address, try putting in the 255.255.255.255. Despite making no sense this often works.
Hello @Todd_Haugen, if your core is up and running, open the app on the remote. If you remain on the “Choose your Roon Core” screen for 60 seconds, a “help” button should appear. If you tap there, you should be presented with the option to enter the IP address of the core manually. You can also try the multicast broadcast IP (255.255.255.255) if the core IP doesn’t work.
Thanks for the tip but I am not seeing this behavior on my android phone. I do not have the same problem on my iPad client. It always see the server so I cannot test:-)
