Yes I know this is not directly related to Voxel's firmware nor particular the R7800. its not because I've read posts from other folks with the same issue with other router.
Obviously asking because I can't think of a better place to ask.
To place subwoofers without the hassle of running long cables many are turning to wireless connections. I have Klipsch subwoofers and use Klipsch's wireless kit, WA-2, to connect to one of them. WA-2 kit uses 2.4ghz band. I was going nuts as once and awhile the subwoofer would burp. Burp is the perfect word to describe it too. At regular intervals it would burp. Drove me nuts trying to figure it out. Did not do so if wired.
Internet search revealed its 2.4ghz channel interference. IF you have one and IF you're using it, something about the mix sends a signal to the subwoofer receiver that says "Hey, wake up. There's bass here for you....burp..."
Easiest solution is to disable the 2.4ghz radio. I only have one device that still uses 2.4. An old Wii that the kids play once and awhile. I can pickup an USB adapter and turn it into wired as well. Adapter is not very expensive.
2.4ghz radio off, NO burps. Could be the transmitter, plugged into the subwoofer out on back of my Denon X2600, is also picking up a signal and doing what its supposed to do, send it to the subwoofer wireless receiver. Could be both transmitter and receiver are getting a false signal as well. The reviews of several of these 2.4ghz based subwoofer wireless kits IF in a 2.4ghz radio/router environment have the same compliant. The newest ones, like the highly rated OSD kit, uses 5.8ghz. It apparently avoids any issues by doing so. Only "burp" themed complaints I can find are in regards to 2.4ghz based kits.
I tried forcing 20 instead of 40 hz for the 2.4 radio too. Burp continued.
There's no documentation regarding 2.4ghz wireless channel being used by the WA-2 kit. It doesn't go through the router so there' no device information. The kit communicates only between the transmitter-receiver. Its not bluetooth. It is 2.4gz.
Is there a way to determine which channel the WA-2 is using? Wireshark pick it up even though router not involved?
Currently I'm testing leaving the subwoofer on all the time. Which is no big deal. If on Auto I'm wondering if the wireless kit is supposed to periodically check and see if anyone is out there and awake. The burp is the transmitter and receiver doing their, "Hey, you awake?" request. Something that isn't in play if the subwoofer is left "On". By being "On" there's no "You awake" being asked. If that makes any sense.
