XR500 does not recognize Sonos Boost on LAN.
Hi, My Sonos Boost connected to XR500 through LAN. It showed up for a brief moment in DumaOS 3.0 and then it show the Sonos Boost is offline. Everytime I reboot the Router, the Sonos Boost showed up...

I assume the boost doesn't actually get an IP address from the router as it's just extending the WiFi, when you connect it be quick and try to set it up within that minutes and it should then work okay

The boost actually hardwires into the router and acts as a dedicated wireless network just for your sonos devices.
Have you tried putting the boosts IP address into the XR's DMZ?
