Astell&Kern new flagship A&Ultima SP2000
Have you tried Automatic DHCP not a static? if you have to use a static can you set the static to a higher number? IP's tend to get assigned to devices in sequence-ish. so low numbers like 192.168.1.10 will be used before 192.168.1.50. you might have a device that is trying to step on your...- mthaynes

Astell&Kern new flagship A&Ultima SP2000
Was able to run a few tests last night and was not able to create an issue where I could not connect and maintain the connection. Keep in mind I am not on an Orbi. Considering the Orbi is a relatively new device from Netgear it may be worth checking to see that you have the latest firmware on...- mthaynes

Mesh networks like the Orbi can cause a number of issues with older devices. newer stuff has less of an issue. I have a Netgear wifi router -not the orbi. I took my old Netgear wifi router and turned it into an "access point" type device to increase the size of my wifi-network. this is a...- mthaynes

Are you using android file transfer? Sometimes AFT is a little odd. My first suggestion is to cold boot the apple (turn off and turn back on - not a restart) and then try the connection. this will ensure that only minimal applications will be running. If after several tests you get a good...- mthaynes

Astell&Kern new flagship A&Ultima SP2000
This is supper annoying and I feel for you. I actually just replaced my 2016 MacBook Pro with a new MacBook Pro. I bought the last of the Intel based Macs right before the M1 pro was announced based on the discussions here. I am on Monterey and currently don't have any connection issues - I...- mthaynes

Astell&Kern new flagship A&Ultima SP2000
there is some discussion on prior pages on M1 based Mac's having communication issues with the AK. the solution has been to use a USB C to USB A converter and then connecting the USB A to the AK via another cable. I don't know if you have tried this. I know it is not the ideal solution, but...- mthaynes

Hi Jason, Theoretically any USB C to USB A will work. the USB A interface within the dongle "should" slow the connection speed to the USB A standard. there is a huge amount of confusion about USC C. here is the 50 thousand foot perspective of the readers digest version of the cliff notes...- mthaynes
