Ethernet streaming and occasional white noise on Windows

[ogs]

Sigh...I was just looking for differences between my setup and those of the people that experience the white noise. The AIR software isn't a difference, it's the only constant.

I agree with this

Also I've never experienced the white noise, not while using a direct connection, not using WiFi or when connected through a switch. (I've used all three extensively)

Then you are quite lucky! And we have good reason to compare settings. Devialet seems to use "forever" so fix this.

Some time ago I've read that to use AIR ethernet you have to have the WiFi card installed. I'm not sure if it's actually used actively/in the signal path when using ethernet.

I have read the same about the wifi card. Maybe some of the processing is performed by code running on that card, but independent from wifi as such.

Thanks for your effort. I haven't had time to check and compare NIC settings yet.
