Comment on [Frame] Does anybody else have issues with streaming after yesterday's beta update to the Frame?

My Frame was bricked by the charging issues from the previous update, about to RMA.
However before that, I investigated streaming issues on 6GHz and pinpointed it to Windows losing the region settings. That’s because 6GHz wifi requires a narrow band setting that’s different in each country (and broadcasting beyond the allowed band is illegal). For some reason, Windows just did not pick up the region from nearby devices and thus sometimes didn’t see the Frame’s 6GHz hotspot (this is what the dongle connects to).
It’s probably not related to your issue, since it caused complete loss of connection, not intermittent dropouts. Either way, might be worth checking if the region is set correctly.
Streaming on Linux worked flawlessly, it’s possible to set the region there easily.
I never had any dropouts just by moving around, though.

I’m sorry to hear you were hit by the charging issue. Region settings are set correctly so that shouldn’t be the issue. Maybe I’ll just have to wait for a new update.
