Wifi OK
Check Internet => OK
Display : IP = 192.168.0.206
My router sees it in the list of connected devices:
Device name MAC address IP address Speed (Mbps) Connected to
unknown 70:F1:1C:22:D4:96 192.168.0.206/24 21 Wi-Fi 2.4G UPCB73A4AD
It used to work fine until this morning, but now when I try to connect to 192.168.0.206 or http://192.168.0.206 there is a website not responding error.
Either from my computer or my mobile phone, both are connected to the same Wifi network
I made sure to upgrade to the latest firmware, I tried hard/soft reboots, I setup the wifi again, restarted my computer and mobile phone, no luck.
It looks like the web server in the B2 refuses to serve any page.
What can it be ?
Is there a way to reset all settings without deleting the music ?

To reset the WiFi, do the Settings > Maintenance > Reset WiFi command. But that may not be the problem.
Check your WiFi signal strength using Settings > Maintenance > WiFi Strength. (I got that from the Brennan website on the Menu page.)
Your signal strength should be at least -60 (-50 being better, -70 being worse) and not fluctuate wildly.
To improve your signal strength, try the following:
Move your B2 closer to your router.
Switch the WiFi dongle to USB C.
Move your WiFi dongle to the end of a USB extension cable.
If none of that helps, you could try plugging a network cable between the inside back of the B2 and your router. If that solves the problem, then it was definitely a WiFi problem. If that does not solve your problem, then it's worse than I can help you with.

Thank you Daniel but it is not a wifi problem as I explained in the first part of my message

Okay, if you say so.
The only other thing that I can think of is that maybe your OS has somehow become corrupted. You can flash a new SD card. I had a strange problem awhile back. I was doubtful that a corrupted OS could be the probelm. But when the recommendation was to re-flash the SD card, I went ahead and tried it, and my problem was solved. Instructions are on the Brennan website.

Yes I'm going to try that as I couldn't find a way to factory reset the unit. Thank you.
