NDS just stops every 13-15 mins when streaming (Tidal), radio, or UPnP. No problem when using as a DAC for external sources. Tried turning off and restarting (via 555PS). Seemed to help for a few hrs but reverted back. Any ideas?
Try using a USB stick to play from. If it also stops then you may need to do a factory reset.
Are you using a third party software to do this or you use native naim software for tidal and radio?
Native Naim.
Tx. Will try now.

does it stop and show connecting? then loses connection for a bit on the app
I don’t think a factory reset is going to be needed. More likely what you should try first is a restart of your router and the NDS. Turn both off, let the router fully restart and then turn the NDS on again.
Tried. Cut out after 4 mins

No loss of connection on the app. Just stopped and back at the beginning of the album.
Doing it now
Nope. Lasted 14mins
I suspect a hardware problem in the NDS. But it would be worth doing a factory reset at this stage.
Wired or wireless?
Wired
So it cuts out playing from a USB stick? And if you stream anything? But it’s ok if you feed it with a digital input.
It’s sounding like a NDS streamer hardware fault to me.

Missed this update. That eliminates a faulty network cable then.
Now done the factory reset. Will let you know. Thank you all for your input

Still cutting out after 14-16 mins.
Not sure if it’s worth the money sending it for repair - old platform etc. Not keen on spending 17,000+ on ND555. Thoughts?
You should speak to Naim first before considering any other options. I understand it is frustrating.
Yes I agree, talk to Naim support. If I were replacing it, I would go for a New Classic streamer NSS333. I suspect the ND555’s days are numbered anyway.
