Change connection method from LAN to WIFI
Hello,
At the moment my Bluesound node 2i is connected via the LAN port. When I booted the device for the first time I didn't configure the WIFI settings.
Now I want to use the WIFI so:
1. I open the BluOS app and go to Settings > Player > WiFi.
2. Select your Home WiFi Network from the Connect to WiFi drop down menu.
But when I press on the wifi SIDD I need -> Android opens the configuration of that wifi setting on my mobile phone.
So my question is how can I confirm that I want to use the SSID on the bluesound APP.
Thanks in advance,
Kr,
Bart

Hello Bart,
All Bluesound players will connect over Ethernet if an Ethernet connection is present. If this Ethernet connection is removed, the player will revert to its WiFi configuration. It is quite strange that your phone is pulling its own configurations after selecting your WiFi from the dropdown, however, what I would suggest is to disconnect the Ethernet from your player to see if the LED on your player turns solid blue to indicate it is connected to your network.If the LED does not turn solid blue, then the player is not correctly configured to your wireless network. To avoid this strange issue you are getting with your phone, I would suggest trying to reconnect your player over Ethernet and configure your player to your wireless network using another mobile device or the BluOS desktop app from a computer on your network.
If neither of these suggestions help, please contact our support crew directly by going to Help > Send Support Request and a member of our support crew will investigate this further for you.

Dear Wesley,
Thank you for your answer. Today I connected again via lan to the bluesound. After starting the bluesouns app I get a popup asked me to installed a new version. After installation I was able to configure the wifi properly.
