Pandora Update (06/24/22): Thank you for the recent posts regarding this issue. While the fix has worked for most of the folks on this thread, I do see that some are still running into this error message during your listening sessions. Our engineering team is aware of this and investigating these additional reports. 


Pandora Update (06/09/22): We believe this issue has now been resolved. 

Could you try again and let me know if you still have trouble with this error message?

You may need to restart your web browser to ensure that the changes have taken effect.

Thanks for your help with this. 🎧


Pandora Update (06/06/22): Hey folks 👋

Thanks for your patience during this process, and sorry for the continued trouble.

Our engineering team is still working on this issue.  In the meantime, all reports of this issue have been reported on the internal ticket we have open.  


Pandora Update (05/23/2022): Hi everyone 👋 Thanks so much for posting about your experience with this error message. We've gone ahead and created an internal ticket with our engineering team for further investigation. Any updates will be posted on this thread. 

If you haven't already, please try signing out of Pandora on the web, and then sign back in again. Since signing out clears Pandora's local storage from your browser, this may help.

In the meantime, all reports of this issue have been reported on the internal ticket. Any updates we have on this issue will be posted on this thread. 

We appreciate your patience during this process. 🎧

Poor network connection. Listening will resume when it's restored

Please help me with this. I've tried all the things recommended to other people and it is still happening. Between every song.  So annoying.

I have a Macbook Air and am unable to get sound from Pandora when logged in.  I use Safari. I have followed the recommended steps: volume turned up, java script enabled, allow pop ups, content blockers off, and delete Pandora under Preferences Privacy.  When I delete the Pandora content under Privacy, I get logged out and then the sound works on the song that is playing when it logs me out.  But then when I log back in the sound doesn't work.  So it appears that my computer can play sound from Pandora, but not when I'm logged in.  When I'm logged in I get the message poor network connection and listening will resume when restored, even though I can visually navigate the site. I get sound when logged out and I'm sitting right next to my wireless router and my internet download speed is above 100Mbps.  I don't listen to Pandora on the laptop very often but I'd like to be able to use it to manage stations and I was hoping to be able to listen to do that.  I don't know what to try next.  This has never happened before.

This has been going on for how many months and isn't fixed? Can I get my money back for paying for no ads when I can't listen because I have to manually  hit PLAY every song? Ridiculous you  guys can't fix this.

Thank you. I hope someone will be able to figure out why my network connect
is fine and I get sound from Pandora when not logged into Pandora and it is
fine for every other app on my computer, but not on Pandora when logged in.
Pandora also works fine through my Yamaha receiver which is connected to
the same network. I suspect Pandora will not longer be available to me on
my computer. I just got a free trial of Apple Music and that seems to be
working fine. Maybe this will trigger a change for me.

Edit: free trial of Amazon, not Apple music.

Confirmed this works for me too!  Nice to have a workaround at least.

It's not fixed for me, however every time the message pops up, which is after every song and every commercial, like another person mentioned, all I have to do is hit the pause button, the message disappears, and it starts playing again every time.

I tried unplugging my modem, router and PC  for 5 minutes,  waited 5 minutes for everything to boot up, then turned on the PC and the message was gone after I logged back into Pandora.

Poor network connection

You've got two weeks to fix this continuing problem. Over a year now. I will cancel ant go to some other streaming service.

Premium user, work internet with good, fast, steady connection.  Shows error at stat-up and stops after every song on on-demand and on stations.  No other streaming services do this.

Buffering/Skipping/Multi-tracks playing simultaneously:

This may be related to the error message you are seeing, however I'm happy to provide some troubleshooting steps to see if we can resolve those.

Are you listening from our website, or the desktop app? If you're listening from our website, what browser are you using?

Let me know.

I resolved my similar problem by shutting everything off and rebooting all devices. I was told that this is necessary from time to time. Hope that helps you.

It still is happening, have tried everything suggested and keep getting the message ALL THE TIME?

When will this be resolved?
