I have been having Airplay issues with my Airports. When listening to iTunes on the Macbook, the music will randomly stop and the Airplay icon will turn orange. It will drop itself after 1-30 minutes of airplay, just depending on it's mood and the day. When listening through the iPhone/iPad, I have to bring up the settings menu (flick up from bottom) and select the airplay device every time it cuts out - every 1-30min as with the Macbook. I have some friends who are suffering these same issues, but with different devices and a brand new Airport Express. I use Airplay religiously for hours a day, so this is a BIG problem for me. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
What I have tried:
The disconnect seems to happen more frequently when I am communicating, so I disabled Facetime relay for calls. It still happens even when my communications are idle.
Reset/unplugged everything
Defaulted and set up everything again
