STR-DN1080 Home Network issue

[Leidal]

Dear All,

I would like to ask for your help with regards to the STR-DN1080 multi channel av receiver. 

I am a user from Europe and I am having trouble with the Music Center app to stay connected with my home network. My amplifier is connected to the network with a network cable and is split to 2 zones. When I run the easy setup through my tv within the amplifier interface, the network gets connected easily and i can use the Music Center app to control the amplifier via network connection. However, when I turn off the amplifier and turn it back on it cannot anymore connect to the home network.. Strange thing is that within Spotify I have the option to start playing my music via Spotify connect and it turns the amplifier on, however it doesnt anymore connect to the Home Network through Music Center app and I cannot control sounds of the zones or anything else. When I try opening the app it tells me to connect via bluetooth.. When I do, it works of course but its bluetooth connection and not home network.

Many thanks in advance for your help in this!

Regards,

Thomas

Have you guys tried reaching out to Sony support reps? If so, what was the response?

I fixed this issue by connecting to my home network via the wired connection, then running through the network setup for wired, but selecting manual setup. For IPv4 use DHCP, and disable IPv6.
