| Turn an Intel macmini into a music server I would not use the RPi3+. It has the USB and the Ethernet running on the same bus. It is very noisy. Even with something like an isolator/noise reducer and an IFI power cleaner, I still found it noisy. When I switched to a custom build with a... | |
| Turn an Intel macmini into a music server I would suggest hqPlayer embedded with a Linux OS. hqPlayer has a minimal Os or something like Archie minimal. You can use an Android app to control it. I won't deny the app leaves some things to be desired. But the SQ is excellent and hqPlayer... | |

| Streaming network issues - need a geek PS - that means nothing but the Netgear will plug into the modem once it is in pass-through mode. Everything will be connected to the Netgear. | |
| Streaming network issues - need a geek No, @ericsch is correct, you need to turn your modem into pass through mode. The modem doesn't care about security as such, the router does and your Netgear router should have a firewall built in. As I mentioned before, you turn that off by hitt... | |
| Streaming network issues - need a geek First, what is your speed on the DSL? Around here it is only 6MB downstream. That's not much these days. It certainly will not do justice to a 4k TV. Second, are you trying to hookup two networks? It sounds like you have the router function o... | |
