I have Comcast Cable Modem/Phone with computers routed via a D-Link DIR-625 and can confirm that the iPhone 4S is crashing my router - totally taking it off line until I unplug it and restart it. It worked a couple days ago and then this crash seems to have set something up so it crashes all the time now.


Very frustrating and I hope Apple has given this a very high priority to fix asap!

Bought the Zeppelin Air over the weekend in the Black Friday sales. Experiencing drop-outs of audio intermittently.


Network Equipment:

Time Capsule 2 TB - Latest FW - (downstairs)

Airport Express - Latest FW - (upstairs)


Devices:

Zeppelin Air - Latest FW - (downstairs)

Ipad2

Iphone4s *2

Apple TV


From testing this yesterday, I can confirm that this issue is narrowed down to the Iphone4S and the Zeppelin. All other combinations seem to work without issue.

Yes same problem here. 4GS+Zeppelin not working. Tried several routers... no luck. Called Apple support, had to explain the girl what AirPlay is... ;( Suggested solution: reset network settings. -> didn't help at all.


B&W support just blamed Apple... ;(


The problem is not limited to B&W Zeppelin:

Streaming from 3GS and MBP works flawlessly.

Hi,


I've got the same probleme here. Here's my setup:


Airport Extreme router

Brand new B&W Zeppelin Air with latest firmware

iPhone 4S


but I found a small trick. As I wanna control music through m iPhone, I install "Remote" app and I can control my computer's music to be sent to my B&W zeppelin perfectly. The best thing is that I found out that with "Remote" you could play the same music on several speakers at the same time.


BTW I really hope Apple will fix the iPhone 4S airplay issue soon...
