Am I the only one getting troubles with WIFI ?

When I'm listening to webradios with different apps the streams get cut off after 15 minutes (I timed it).

Would you know what to tweak to avoid this ?

Regards.

You're not the only one ... there seems to be a 15min Timer that is going to shut down WiFi ...
Experienced it while streaming from a website ...

But I did not find a way to avoid this so far ...

At least the time is questionably acceptable. The feature is probably there to save battery in case someone forgets it turned on.

Thank you, your videos are always very useful for us!

As for activity, well... let's hope things will get fixed soon!

 

[New Fiio Owner]

Hi all,

I just thought that I would update you on my quest to connect my Fiio X5 3rd Gen with my XPS 9550.

Like many here, my X5III refuses to connect with my USB 3.0 ports, however, fortunately I found that I could connect it via USB-C.

Originally I connected it using a fly-lead adapter and then by an adapter head, but I wanted a dedicated cable.

I tried two cables from Amazon, an 'Ultrics' cable and a 'Vandesail' cable, two manufacturers that I have never heard of and both cables failed to be recognised.

I then did a little Googling and found that there are some very dubious cables being sold by Amazon none of which meet USB-C standards and may potentially damage your equipment, so I sent both back for a refund.

I just took delivery of a Belkin cable that works perfectly, my X5III connects and maintains a full working connection.

Therefore, I can confirm at least for me, that the X5III is fully compatible with USB 2.0 and USB-C, but not USB 3.0.

I am not having any issues with USB 3.0 using the cables that came with the X5iii. Win 10 Pro.

Go into wifi settings, select the menu from the three dots icon at the top right, select advanced and set Keep Wifi on During Sleep to Always.
That (mostly) worked for me.

Thanks for that tip!!!!

Thanks, I'm going to try 'WiFi in intelligent mode' ...
Hope this helps and keeps WiFi on, as long as a stream is played.
That would be intelligent

Let me know if it does. It didn't work for me when I tried it, but there have been a few firmware updates since then.

I should point out that the wifi tip was originally given to me by @heuricite (took me ages to find the original message now that there is no thread search function). Thanks again @heuricite!

The thing that bothers me with the new layout is that I am no longer getting notifications. Subbed and logged in on multiple forums but no notifications. ??????????
