Roon Internet bandwidth requirements

Wouldn’t it make sense to move this to the @support area?

The problem isn’t bandwidth, I’m sure.
In my house I have two different networks.

  1. An old ADSL network via a Fritzbox for landline telephony and as a backup. That’s really slow, see speed test:

  1. Streaming runs exclusively via the second high-speed network, including Roon.

The slow network with 4.32 Mbps is just enough to stream CD Quality 44.1kHz via Roon. I have tried it.

With the second fast network, everything usually works like a charm. There are no dropouts, no delays, gapless also works perfectly all the time.
However… there was something:

Is it possible that performance, not bandwidth, sometimes just is not enough?
Router performance, core machine, in my case probably not enough RAM (I didn’t do a RAM test, I just think it’s possible that the single 8 GB RAM stick no longer works 100%)
? @support ?
