Why Anker Soundcore 2 Speaker Keeps Disconnecting/Not Working?

Why does my Anker Soundcore 2 speaker keep disconnecting?

The main reason why your Anker Soundcore 2 speaker keeps disconnecting is because of the distance between the speaker and the audio source is too far or a faulty battery.

 

• A faulty battery
• The speaker is unable to connect with the device (audio source)
• Unstable connection
• Software updates are not installed
• The speaker’s low charge

 

A faulty battery

The speaker’s battery comes with a useful life. It could be 5 years or more. (You should ask about these details from the customer representative at the store) Why knowing about this is important? The reason is that sometimes the device stops working all of a sudden. It does so because its battery, its nucleus, has passed its useful life. In that case, it is better to get it replaced timely.

 

The speaker is unable to connect with the device (audio source)

If the speaker was connected to another device and that device is open for connection, or if too many other devices are connected to the audio source, the speaker may exhibit some pairing issues. It is best to power off the speaker and restart them before pairing them with the audio source.

 

Electronic interference

Electronic devices in the close range of the speaker, especially those with the frequency of 2.4GHz, are likely to interfere with the performance of your speaker. What should you do? Either change your location or turn off electronic devices that are not in use. If you are using peripheral devices, you can plug them out.

 

Unstable connection

If the audio source is connected to too many devices, the speaker will find it difficult to maintain a strong and stable connection with the device. If the speaker is in prime use, you should disconnect all the unnecessary devices and keep the device connected to the speaker only.

 

Software updates are not installed

Smartphones and laptops need regular updates. Their manufacturers routinely send notifications about the available updates, which must be installed timely. If you missed an update, your device might have some performance issues. Sometimes, it will fail to connect to wireless devices like a speaker. If your speaker isn’t getting connected, it is best that you install the updates.

 

The speaker’s low charge

Anker Soundcore 2 can perform on a single charge for up to 15 hours, but it does depend on the level of activity. In most cases, you get a notification (the built-in voice) about your speaker’s low battery. To avoid disruptions, you should get them charged when the first notification pops up.

 

Why Anker Soundcore 2 keeps cutting out?

The reason your Anker Soundcore 2 keeps cutting out is because of its faulty or broken circuit board.

 

Internal wear and tear are not visible to the naked eye. Many users don’t get to know about the problem until the issue has been exacerbated to a point where you cannot rectify it. This problem causes the speaker to keep cutting out.

 

Why Anker Soundcore 2 keeps skipping audio?

The reason your Anker Soundcore 2 keeps skipping audio every 4-5 minutes is because of the distance between the device responsible for audio and the speaker. Another reason for this issue could be the speaker’s incompatibility with the audio source.

 

Or the distance between the WiFi router and the speaker.

 

Incompatibility issues, unfortunately, do not have any fixes. It suggests that the device cannot support thespeaker of a particular brand.

 

• The only remedy that you have is to buy a new set of speakers – and too that from a different brand
• Suppose the speaker used to connect to the device and is not connecting anymore. In that case, you should consider resetting both the speaker and the phone/laptop, forgetting the pairing device, and reconnecting them
