Why can’t I access streaming services from my Cabasse connected product?
Using a VPN (on a smartphone, tablet, or router) may block or interfere with certain features of the Cabasse app and connected speakers.
Possible issues when a VPN is active on a phone or tablet
Depending on the VPN provider, the technology used, and the country of connection, a VPN may:
-
Make Wi-Fi setup for speakers unstable or even impossible
-
Prevent speakers from being detected on the network (even via Ethernet)
-
Block certain sources (Connect, AirPlay, Roon, etc.)
-
Partially or completely block access to streaming services
-
Cause display issues in the Cabasse app
-
Slow down connected features
Possible issues when a VPN is configured on the router
When the VPN is active at the home router level, it may also:
-
Prevent speaker calibration
-
Block software updates
-
Disrupt or block multi-room functionality
-
Cause all of the issues listed above
How can I resolve the problem?
-
Disable the VPN when using the Cabasse app and streaming services
-
Check if your VPN offers split tunneling and exclude the Cabasse app from the VPN
-
Test without the VPN to confirm whether the issue is VPN-related
Is the issue caused by the Cabasse product?
No. These issues are related to the way the VPN operates and are not caused by the Cabasse app or speakers.
