KEF LS50W who has them?

Awful wireless (WiFi)function.....It’s intermittent at best.
Getting my iPhone out and summing up my Tidal or Qbuzz through KEF stream app and playing via Wireless(WiFi) on LS50W is so exasperating..90% of the time doesn’t  work.
You can buy a streamer Or CD player and hook it up and Works just fine, sounds good as well.
A disappointing purchase, got it from my wife as Xmas present about 3 yrs ago.

@so-al ... I had the same issue and it turned out to be my old router. Got a Nest Wifi and the LS50Ws have been rock solid since then.

I have an eero and works great, everything works on it except the KEF LS50W.
The wireless (WiFi) Function on the LS50w is awful.
Its no wonder KEF with will only cover active parts/function of the LS50W for a year, it’s because it’s crap...

I’ve had multiple problems with playing music through my iPad. If I switch apps, or listen to one song a short time and switch to another, it stops playing until I restart. I had tried the B&w duos and I couldn’t get those to play more than a few seconds, of at all. It seems these companies just don’t have good programing for wireless streaming, which was my main reason for buying them. Until they makes these things as idiot proof as using an iPhone, they will not be able to expand their reach with the product. Only those with a lot of computer knowledge and time to tinker might be intrested. They’re sitting on a shelf in my bedroom closet. Later I may use one of the hardwire solutions to connect it to a CD player, but that defeats the reason for buying wireless. Should have bought the regular models and gone that route. I’ve found most streaming devices do not make it easy to use their products or apps, not sure what’s so difficult about it. I have a portable headphone amp, dac that uses the android and works just fine. 

Update- I’ve called KEF about my LS50w and they are working with me!
I have to give them props for helping out on a trade in!!
Big kuddos to KEF once again, I don’t feel left out in the cold and they’ve converted me to lifetime KEF guy!
it might’ve been I just got a bad pair, that will be replaced by KEF for a new KEF pair
