First off, welcome to the community! We’re excited to have you here, and thank you for reaching out to us with your question. My sincerest apologies for the delayed response and for your wait. We’ve made some recent changes to the support team structure and some reports have experienced a longer response time than usual.
I’m sorry to hear that you were having issues with getting your Roon remote to connect to your Core. Since some time has passed I wanted to touch base to get your current status. If you’re still experiencing this problem and need assistance please let us know.
We’ll be watching for your reply and get back in touch as quickly as we can. Thanks!

I wanted to check in on this, are you still running into issues with the newest build 970? If so, please send over a new set of logs after you’ve updated.
