I am NOT unplugging anything to re-establish a connection. I simply reboot when TAS needs it.Wil
i don’t get why you need to unplug to re establish the handshake. Turning the back switch off is not advised as it takes so much longer to resettle as the capacitors discharge
the last time I turned off the rear switch was to install the new USB board. I have never lost the handshake between TAS and the Extreme
In this case I'm simply asking a narrow question applicable to when I must unplug to change to another outlet.
The question is: If the unplugged time is very short (say 2.5 seconds) is it expected that the performance restore time will be less than if unplugged for longer periods (like an hour)?
And more generally, this question is worth looking at particularly for people like me who live in common thunderstorm country. I know of some people who cut the power to their entire audio systems whenever storms are hitting to protect again a lightning strike. That kind of weather happens here a lot. If I followed that precaution, the Extreme would be performing sub par for probably 100-150 days out of the year. (given Emile's statement of a 3-5 day restore period after un-plugging). That being the case, I stay powered up and fingers crossed!
