how do you stream ethernet quality in a non ethernet (wi fi only) room


Hi, seeking guidance on starting the process for a second streaming system upstairs bedroom where wifi is my only current option

do options exists to achieve ethernet quality?

should I be seeking a wifi server that caches from memory during the stream?

wifi dongles typically connect to a USB port and require a driver on a device they’re connected to in order to work.

You can easily use a wi-fi dongle on any Aurender, @audphile1.

  I used a TP-Link AV2000. $90 on Amazon and returnable. My streamer has adjustable buffering. Almost anything is an improvement over a laptop. Regards, Mike B.

Most if not all streamers have cache memory. Even my cheap BS Node N130 has like 8gig of cache and I’ve seen 256 gig on other streamers.

Ethernet just moves data and a decent wifi router or mesh system with a reasonable modern streamer can easily do that just as well. Some manufacturers recommend wifi vs ethernet.
