When I stream highress I get the message that my WiFi is not sufficient ………
So my question is pretty simple ……
Do I need to connect my laptop (cable) or do I need to connect my streamer (cable)
I get highres from qobuz on my laptop ……
I am just wondering how it works ……
Does my laptop only give the command to my streamer ………so the streamer needs probably a hardwired network connection
Except the Core (laptop) is the component that needs to be hardwired wired most, as it’s both receiving traffic from Qobuz itself and then sending that traffic onto your streamer via RAAT — so twice the network load.
If you haven’t already, have a read of Roon’s Networking Best Practices. In particular this part “Your Roon Core (ie the laptop in your case) should always have a wired connection”.
The simplest solution - try to connect your roon core (laptop) by cable and you will see whether issue appear again. If so, you can connect streamer by cable and check.
I’m using only wifi (roon core and streamer) with hires streaming from internet and nas and never seen such issue.
Maybe it’s a matter of internet speed?
Thanks a lot, I will try to connect (cable)with my laptop first and see what happens.
Normally I have no problem
It works pretty good
Just WiFi…….
Only with highres 24 bit …….
Anyhow
Thanks …….

And that’s your clue right there…
Hires obviously places a lot more strain on the available bandwidth using WiFi.
You can either limit your resolution to 16/44 in audio settings or go wired.
Best of luck.
