Lost all attached devices. Running ROPIEEE2023.7.1

Changed my LAN network, different LAN-Switch, now all devices (DACs) attached via USB in ROON are gone, also this ROPIEEEXL is gone in ROON…

LAN Network scan however shows my ROPIEEEs all there incl. this one!

Harry, could you please have a look? 5048f7455f15881f

Thanks a lot, Klaus

Have you changed the router too? Check the new subnet if you had in the previous network defined fixed ip address and eventually dhcp addresses too that likely changed too

Thanks will do, but that switch is transparent, does not create a subnet; so I assumed the fixed IP-Adresse of those devices would stay the same (?)

That’s true but it’s better to check
… and reboot everything that is connected to the network

Same IP-Adresses!! Unchanged!
And of course my ROON ROCK has been rebooted!

Funny enough I see this “missing” ROPIEEXL as an Airplay device, but NOT AS A ROON BRIDGE as my other ROPIEES (?)

I also see that ROPIEEEXL device in ROON “ABOUT” but all attached to it USB devices are missing…??

Have you tried to reboot Roon and that rpi?

Yes, I have, several times actually. No change…

Have you checked the ‘audio’ section in Roon? I’m wondering if you need to re-configure your devices on Roon’s side.

Yes of course Harry, all the devices I miss are shown as “unavailble” - and no missing devices show up as “new”…

Well, I replaced testwise this ROPIEE-XL whith another (nearly identical passive PI4) and now my devices are all back! Had to build a new group as names changed.

Guess attaching 4 USB-DACs to one ROPIEEE was just too much…2 years it lasted

What is the ip address of your core and the ip addresses of your Ropiees.? It really does sound like you have created a subnet somehow. Airplay can be detected over subnets if the network has mDNS active, Roon Ready/Roon Bridges can’t as it uses SSDP for discovery. Using fixed ip addresses on devices and changing network components is a risky business, fixed or reserved ip adresses should be set on the router to avoid such issues.

But it may be as simple as your system needs a reboot. Have you rebooted all devices since switching over the new network gear? Roon is temperamental at the best of times network wise. I would if you have not restart your whole network bit bit and same for all devices.

Nope, when I changed the PI4 w/o changing anything else, my devices appeared again. No Subnet was created.

Have you tried rebooting everything as I suggested as this tends to clear most things. If it still persists What was the switch, check that it is not blocking Roons multicast traffic, remove it and see if they return as this will help to see if it’s the switch or not as that’s all you changed.

Thanks, BUT IT HAS BEEN SOLVED, if you read my previous replies… :wink:
