For those who expience drop-outs when streaming fom a NAS, there is a somewhat clumsy solution. Set the A&K device to "Blutooth Sync" mode. In this configuration, when paired with a playback device such as a mobile phone running VLC, the A&K device acts as a Blutooth DAC and the media can be monitored via wired headphones.Excellent! I’m glad you have found a resolve. It is a shame though that the rest of us will probably have to invest in a new Router if we want to avoid the ‘drop out’ that is still an ongoing Issue. I am surprised that this has not been resolved finally via a Firmware update. It seems that if A&K do not encounter the issue themselves they will not concern themselves of it. I know this as I had an Alpha that dropped out internet connection after about 15 minutes of streaming. A&K investigated on their side, could not replicate the issue on their side, so that was that. Yup…..

I just bought the alpha upgraded the firmware but was having dropouts all the time,I went into my vodaphone router and split the ssid channels 2.4 and 5ghz and now it is stable,but really this device should have came with both.
