It is a known issue now as it is has been reported to our devs. There will be an update soon, however I don't have an exact date at the moment. Thanks for your patience and understanding
My experience on the desktop app has been miserable for almost a year now. I live in an area with bad internet and I can’t listen to my downloaded music without interruption. I’m not renewing my subscription until you fix this.

Hi @Jaime.Deezer , would you happen to have an update for us regarding Offline mode in Desktop App ?
As mentioned by @Nizoubizou, it’s apparently more important for the Desktop app to connect to internet than to play the already downloaded music. With bad connections, the app is just unusable (e.g. in a train or in a “white zone”).
Offline mode or not, the application should just be able to play the downloaded music. All other features should just gracefully fail in the background and not prevent playing music... the main purpose of the app :-)
@Tfpbl I’ve just tested on my side and downloaded a couple of playlists and albums on my desktop app on Mac. Then turned the wifi off and played the downloaded music with no problem. Could you please try again and let me know if it works for you as well. Thnaks

My most recent experience in a train with spotty internet is that I was not able to listen to my downloaded music. Deezer was stopping the already downloaded music every few seconds or minutes whenever internet came back or dropped.
Again, repeating myself:
> Offline mode or not, the application should just be able to play the downloaded music [implicit: independently of the quality/reliability/availability of internet connections]
So kindly consider and report this much needed feature (Spotify has had it for years): Deezer needs to be able to start and play a downloaded playlist independently to the internet connection.
And kindly also report a bug that Deezer fails to continue playing downloaded music when internet is spotty/slow/unreliable.
