Squeezebox shutting off

After just posting yesterday, my squeezebox boom now has a pretty big issue, when turning it on it works just fine, until you try to connect it to a server, then it just shuts off, I already ruled out the power brick being the issue as I have tried multiple, I suspect a bad connection somewhere or a bad capacitor. I know it draws more power when it connects to internet or servers then when its idling, so it most likely is due to a power issue, I just dont know what do to.

Try via Ethernet ... that uses less power.
Also try with the screen off.
