Weiss DAC 204 hiccups


I very recently acquired a Weiss DAC 204 which I am streaming Amazon HD Music to via a Bluesound Node 2i.  The DAC sounds great and is a huge improvement over the Bluesound and Hegel H190.   However, I am getting hiccups once in a while.   I have connected the Bluesound to the Weiss using a Cardas Parsec Coax cable.  Unfortunately, I do not have a choice but to use WIFI.  I have had no WIFI stability issues in the past.  Seeking help.  Would a streamer like a PS Audio Airlens solve the problem.  I do not want to spend much more on a streamer than an Airlens.  I have been very pleased with Amazon HD, but recognize I might have to switch to Qobuz since very few streamers support Amazon HD.  Thank you in advance for advice.

Streaming takes almost no bandwidth. The problem tends to be in wifi receivers inside of streamers.

+1. The streamer in my audio system is connected by ethernet to the network gear located on another floor. The results are better than anything I get with wifi, which I use only for control.
