Hi!

I have a Pioneer VSX-1124 home theater receiver that seems to randomly lock up and reboot only when streaming music (from Pandora or Internet Radio). I only recently started having this issue when I modified the way that my receiver connects to my home network.

I recently changed my cable/internet provider. As part of the installation, my provider ran CAT 5e cable to my cable box next to my receiver. The tech installed an ethernet switch. Prior to this installation, my home theater receiver was connected to my network using powerline networking. Since the installer installed a local switch, I went ahead and pluged directly into the ethernet switch and removed the powerline adapter. Now, whenever I stream music (ie Pandora), my receiver will randomly lockup and reboot after 5-15 min. I never had this issue when connected to the powerline network.

Any ideas why this may be occurring? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
 
Solution
Is the Pioneer allows configuring NIC for fixed 10/100 mbit instead of auto-negotiate, I would try that. Also if flow control available, flip it to something else see what happens.
