wifi connection drops

[giovilux]

Hi all,
I haven't been able to find a solution here in the forum.
Rueneaudio drops the wifi connection after a while its switched on.
The system doesn't stop playing what is in the play list, it just drops the connection, it is not even visible among the modem connected devices , so the only way to connect to it it's switch it off and switch it on again.

Any ideas?
thanks
Giovanni

Hi Giovanni,

the internal wifi (Pi3) is not the best at all.
I first would try to move the Pi closer to your router.
If the problem doesn't disappear I would try to use a USB dongle (one that is known to work with Arch Linux) instead.

You also can try my latest test image from , it uses a more recent kernel.

Solved it. With a router that i transformed in bridge. Now it is wired and it never drops.
