I have the problem that i can´t play spotify music.
That problem is on lan network on a windows machine and alle mobile phones with spotify app. And when i can play spotify music ( i think titles that are offline) i can´t play them on google speakers. The speakers “bling” one time and thean dropped.
Equipment.
RUTX50 without wifi activated
3 TAP 200 connect via LAN direct to RUTX50 SSID all the same.
So, when mobile phone connected to Telekom (no RUTX, no TAP, no WiFi, → pure mobile connection), is Spotify working then?
Are you able to stream music at all?
And no, playing offline (= downloaded) content doesn’t count
Alright, let’s confirm if your speakers are connected to the WiFi and have internet access. To do this, go to Status → Network → Topology and scan the LAN network. Check if your speakers’ IP address is listed.
If you haven’t made any additional configurations on your device, Google speakers should work fine without any port opening or traffic rule adjustments. The issue might very likely be with the speakers themselves.
Does music play when you are connected to the internet?
There might be the case that Google speaker needs an active Spotify connection (device being online) to play music as Google speaker is not just a regular wifi speaker.
Smart devices typically communicate via HTTP(S) protocols. Ports for these protocols are usually open for communication by default, especially for LAN to LAN communication. I would suggest trying to reach out to Google/Spotify tech support for assistance.
I’m glad you were able to fix the issue you were encountering. It seems it was hidden within some configuration. Either way, if you experience any other issues, feel free to reach out again.
