    Good afternoon,

    I have the same issue. After trying to update the Node 2 by using a USD stick with the latest software, the light remains red. Even after an couple minutes without power.

     Could you please escalate this to the support crew? Thanks in advance!

     

    Regards,

    Have the exact same problem. My Node 1 is constantly red. Wireless does not work, ethernet does not work. I have tried unplugging and replugging everything. I tried to do a USB firmwire upgrade but don't think it worked because no red&green blinking as stated in information.

    Please escalate.

    Thanks!
    Sam

    Hello,

    Unfortunately the powerunit in my Bluesound was broken after a thunderstorm. It had to be repaired.

    Hello,

    Same issue for me... do you have any advise ?

    I guess the node 2 is permanently damaged... 

     

    Thanks.

    Hi Jallon

    We will be in touch but sounds like it may just be having a problem connecting to the Network during update...

    Repaired or replaced? Bluesound is only offering me a replacement.

    "We can offer the out of warranty price as follows:
    A-Stock -  $374.25 plus shipping
    Recertified Stock  -  $249.50 plus shipping"

    Job, thanks for your reaction.

    Are more solutions known? Or is it always a broken power unit?

    Hello  Robert/Alex,

    I bet that the answer will be 'escalating your issue to our Support Crew'.

    But keep in mind that you have to buy a new one.....

    I see many of these complaints come by, but I start to doubt the quality.

    I have the exact same problem. When updating, with a wired connection, the Node 2 light became red. I followed your manual, tried to update by USB. No reaction or whatsoever. Please let me know the sollotiun. With so many people having the same problems, there must be a proper fix, right?

    I have exactly the same problem. Did NOT initiate any updates. The node2 light is red. And even starts with the red light plugging the AC cord in. Reset procedure does not work. Firmware link for USB update is not received. It worked fine the other day.

    My Node2 is connected using a LAN cable, I have no internet connectivity issues whatsoever.

    Update: I have sent my device to repair, it is a hardware issue and the invoice is ~230 Euro.

    @Alexander Grill.

    Thanks for info. I bought a used Mode 1 for way less than 230eur and also sending it it for cost estimation. Will be interesting to see how it goes...

    @Alexander: would you be so kind to elaborate on “hardware issue”? My device is 2,5 years old., formally 6 months out of guarantee. However, in our country there are laws concerning the “expected life” of a product. And certainly 2,5 years would be absolutely unacceptable for such a product.

    Hello Chris,

    the "multi media board" need to be exchanged. What ever is damaged on that...

    Exact the same problem here: suddenly a red light, did not initiate any update. Power off for more than a day, restarts won’t work. The helpdesk automatic reply was the will be in touch, but when reading all this issues here I can only hope for miracle. 
    Luckily my dealer will help me in this, but I must say these days you expect quicker and better replies form the helpdesk than ‘escalating’ this. But, I am still hoping for a miracle!

    Alexander Gill : thanks for your answer! I'm feeling a bit hesitant on having a "mainboard" replaced: it leaves me wondering how much time it will take for the node2 to end up the same again... Did you receive any additional guarantee after having the multi media board replaced? How old was your node2 before it crashed?

    @Rombout Schipper:  how old is your Node2?

    All

    support@bluesound.com will be happy to review your individual issues as each issue is different.

    The vast majority of players stuck in upgrade are a network connection issue and can be resolved by connecting a network cable and in the future setting a DHCP reservation in the router to resolve future issues.

    If that is not working, please reach out directly to The Support Crew at support@bluesound.com rather than posting here as we have to troubleshoot your environment - or in the rare case, it is a hardware issue, provide options.

    Thank you for your patience and understanding.
