WiiM Ultra lost ethernet connection

Same issue. Same hardware. Tried fixed ip. Doesn’t work
Noticed that the MAC address is not the same in the WiiM info screen and the Mesh network app.
 
Nope. Appears as Ethernet, not wifi
Both IP address and MAC shall be the same on WiiM and router.

Make sure you only set IP address on the router and to an unused address. Prefer outside the range used by the DHCP server.
 
I would stop using the PowerLine adapters, as they are not only unreliable but also introduces noise into the audio equipment. Use a Mesh Network instead.
This simply isn't true, huge parts of my house would be offline without powerline, and powerline is both faster and more stable than wifi even in the parts that wifi does reach.

As for noise, networking signals are ordered of magnitude away from the audio spectrum so there's no chance any noise (not that I've noticed any noise) would have an impact on the performance of the WiiM.

Further Networking is digital and digital signals are either perfect, or none existent, noise on the line simply cannot affect the quality, unless the noise occurs after the DAC in the analog realm, if you have power related noise there, it's coming from the power supply for your amp, not the powerline adaptor.

Yes . No issues on the digital signal path. But for analog parts they can introduce noise. See for example this thread "Buzzing/Humming when using Phono Input"
 
Solved. seems an issue with the Powerline adapter. For now just using wifi.
Thank you for your help
You’re feeding your device with contaminated noise. Who knows the contaminated line maybe soothing to your ear but definitely not us audiophile. Use WiFi even it’s just 2.4ghz.
