Google Hub & Speaker group playback cuts out/buffering

Flames1984 — Sun, 05 Apr 2020 18:57:22 GMT

Streaming Spotify through Google Home speaker groups (Mix of Google Home, Nest Mini, Nest hub, and Nest Hub Max) often cuts out. Hubs will show the progress bar "buffering" and Google Home & Minis will cut in and our intermittently.

Only started ~2 weeks ago. Strong 2.4ghz wifi signal to all devices via mesh wifi.

Hey there @Flames1984!

Welcome to the Community and thanks for reaching out.

You can start off by giving your router a restart and re-connecting again.

If the issue persists, could you let us know if you experience it when you give the speakers a voice command to play music or when you're using the Connect feature?

If possible, could you even try using a different network to stream via some of the speakers to see if that makes a difference. You could for example create a hotspot on your phone and use that network.

Keep us posted on how it goes. We'll be here if you have any further questions.
