Many problems with Roon w.r.t networking

(also reported in the ropieee thread.)
More testing, realized that with the ropieeexl endpoint turned off, the problem went away.
Did some network debugging.
My imac had a DNS server setting of 8.8.8.8. I must have set that in the past.
That’s google, so should work fine. But I was having some DNS lookup failures.
So reset it to 192.168.1.1 (my internet router).
Rebooted etc.
Now seems to be much happier.
Not sure why ropieee off would make things happy and with it on made it unhappy.
Not sure why 8.8.8.8 DNS server setting caused problems.
Doesn’t make much sense.
But that one change seems to have made roon talking to tidal happy. So I"ll be happy.
Hopefully it stays happy. Thanks for the thoughts…
