RE: Bluesound Node 2

I don't have a Bluesound but I thought I should share a WiFi connectivity problem I had with my Mac Mini sending Tidal Internet radio to a DAC. I used two different DACs and would have intermittent drops of Tidal even though my measured Internet connection speed was always quite high, above 35 Mbps for example.

Then I took an old Apple Airport I had laying around and connected the Mac Mini using ethernet from the Airport. Set up the Airport in bridge mode of course because I use an Apple Extreme router and turned off the WiFi in the Mac Mini. I've never had a Tidal drop or stop issue since.

If the Bluesound has an ethernet connection you might want to try something like this.
