Describe the issue

Hello, I was trying to link my Qobuz account with Roon (hosted on my mac mini) but I keep getting error message saying "Network error: Please check your connection". I can log in Qobuz via its app or webpage just fine, and I didn't have any issue with Tidal on Roon. I tried turning on/off vpn, updating the bits file on server, restarting mac and router but none of these works.

The log recorded the following:

03/04 21:45:47 Warn: [.NET ThreadPool Worker] [easyhttp] [207] GET https://www.qobuz.com/api.json/0.2/user/login?device_manufacturer_id=e48efaffac8949ce9209b9be6fb7cad0&email=whiiz%40qq.com&password=3dfa88dfa15eae2483e6a1aaacc208aa&request_sig=8fdbd448a08c61a36fe52eb16a636a74&request_ts=1741095872 web exception without response: socketmsg (TimedOut): Operation timed out (104.244.46.21:443) Operation timed out (104.244.46.21:443)

Please let me know if additional information is needed. Thank you!

Describe your network setup

Hi @Hanzhang_Wang,

Diagnostics indicate that you’re encountering an issue with upstream servers due to georestrictions in the geographic location of your IP address.

Unfortunately, Roon doesn’t have control over the availability of the Qobuz API and their upstream in these circumstances - if you’re using a VPN to access Roon’s streaming services, we recommend posting in Tinkering, where users will have more precise recommendations.
