    Thanks for your patience Michiel as we work through this even busier than usual Holiday Season and COVID-19 safety measures.

    I have exactly the same problem, noticed it today. I believe my connection got lost after the software upgrade of my pulse flex 2i. Tried everything: factory reset, router reset, moved away my repeater (interference), Same problem as Michiel, pairing light flashes. but app says cannot connect.

    raised a service request as well, is it correct that the wifi network should not impact the connection between sub and soundbar? In my view the latest update has impacted ability to couple. Btw i am using IOS app.

    Solved the problem. I used my iPad instead of iPhone (with same BluOs version installed) and now could reconnect the sub.

    @johannes: Sorry to hear that, yesterday I also tried it with my ipad on your recommendation but unfortunately no difference. Still no connection between Soundar and pulse sub.

    Do you have your soundbar connected via Wifi or via utp connection? My soundbar (and 2 flex) are connected to my network via cable.

    Hi Michiel, i have connected my soundbar through UTP, the flex speakers wirelessly. I have my set now for one year incl sub an it always worked flawlessly till last month. I am on ziggo internet

    I really do not know what the problem is and find it quite annoying.

    I have my suspicions around the software upgrade for the pulse sub+

    In my view the internet connection should not really matter, because the subwoofer links with to the sounder through a point to point connection.

    The 1st ticket I submitted to Bluesound is from December 12th. It takes very long time to respond. I am losing my faith in the Bluesound products.

    I find it also quite annoying.. my sub never worked yet at my home. I think that the problem is my soundbar. In the shop the sub worked fine.

    That sucks, i am also led to believe my soundbar is the problem. Disappointing for the money you pay for it..

    i've tried everything, with internet connection, on wifi, factory reset (soundbar). Every time it says pairing failed.

    Now in contact with the support desk, first step is to toggle soundbar auto standby to of. Tried an failed. Waiting for next options to pursue. Software update apparently does not have an effect on the communication between sub and soundbar. It is a dedicated signal transmitter. I do not hope it is a hardware failure on the soundbar....

    yes i got the same thing to try, switch off Amplifier Standby. I didn't help at my side either. I certainly hope that it is not a hardware failure... how long is the guarantee with bluesound?  ;)
