Spotify Connect "same wifi" ?

[MauriceFallou]

Hi,

In the guide for about Spotify Connect, when you say "same wifi", you mean same network right ?

[Peter__]

Yup, normally the same WiFi network.

Thanks,

But i mean, if I have a AV receiver linked to a router with a cable and a phone on the same router but via wifi, it will work right ?

I cannot comment as I do not have the same HW to be able to test. But I'm pretty much 100% sure that it will work as long as you are going through the same router then the mode of connection should not make a difference.

So in my opinion, yes your scenario should work.

[MauriceFallou]

I am almost sure too. It will be pretty stupid if not.

Anyway, thanks for answers, I will test that when I will receive my AV Receiver and when Yamaha will update the firmware (that's a lot of conditions !)

I do wonder about this since if you are trying to sync local files to a mobile device, both the comptuer and the phone have to be on the same WiFi network and both connected Wirelessly. 

Will be interesting to test if anyone has the hardware. 

[MauriceFallou]

I will let you know.

Please do. Would be interesting to know as I'm sure it will work, but confirmation would be useful.

Thanks

No problem.

We just need to light 1 candle and hope Yamaha will release their new firmware soon ...

[MauriceFallou]

Just to let know it is working.

For the record, I have a AV receiver connected with a RJ45 cable to a wifi router, and a phone connected wirelessly to this same router.

Great. Thanks for remembering to post back with results. Definately helps me assured that I want the Yamaha when I can get the funds together.
