TEAC NT-505 impossible connecting to WiFi router o such LAN: help me please?


Hello mates,
I got my NT-505 3 days ago.
It seems to be working correctly but in my opinion all software in not the same level than the device: too aged & often no relevant documentation or support about.
However my big trouble is the NETWORK interface:  since first time I switched on, the NT-505 remains "for ever"  into NET configuring blinking state until it goes in power stand by.
Summarizing:

1. RJ45 cable is ok - tested in several manners
2. the wifi router (1Gb fiber connection) is ok
3. the wifi router ether ports (4) are ok - I checked a bridged LAN configuration too

Testing the NT-505 Ether port It results:

1. the physical level of protocol seems working correctly just on-way: the interface recognizes correctly the bandwidth (Fast ot Giga in my case) end the packet coming from the router are buffered. No packet sent  to the router.

2. At protocol level no ARP session are involved hence impossible retrieve MAC address and trying to do something.


VERY STUPID ISSUES:

1. Being NET board logically split from MAIN board It's need a separate firmware(!!!): how can I upload the NET firmware if, as stated into documentation, I must use the mobile app and It's impossible connecting the device to such LAN?

2. NO menu interface to configure manually the net parameters.

May someone help me (tricks..., recovery sw,..., low level maintance menu...,...) 

Thank you a lot.

Second day with my new NT-505 and so far and can not be happier.
Any of you folks have experience with Roon Essentials?

No, sorry, no experience with Roon.

I saw on another NT-505 thread that a chap got the Teac CG-10M 10MHz external clock to add to the NT-505 and reported that it made it better than an Auralic Vega G1. I don’t know if I can justify the added cost though .... Wish there were more reports of the external clock making a big difference.  
I have the full Roon, not Essentials, and mine was recognized by Roon immediately once it was connected to the network.

BTW, I've had mine for 2 weeks now and love it. The headphone amp section is not the greatest but I bought a used SPL Phonitor E and now it's fantastic.
This is what I got back from TEAC regarding using the NT-505 with a wireless client:

I’m suspecting network congestion on the wireless network may have contributed to the issue you were having. This is why the Ethernet connection resolved it.
I have an NT-505 that has now started to not connect to the network, as well as pair In Bluetooth.  I’ve done all the normal things to correct.  Reset, firmware upgrade.  Check directly with my router, but it will not work.  Have talked with Teac (Onkyo) support and they said I need to send it in to a service center. 
QUESTION:  Who did you talk to and how did you get a replacement done for your unit?  I just want a replacement and not have to wait months for a service center to do something.
ONE MORE THING:  A service center close to where I live, and suggested by Teac told me they don’t work on the NT-505.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
