Sorry, I'm totally unfamiliar with the Antipodes DS so no idea whether it does gigabit (but I suspect it must if your switch is indicating so).

The mystery continues...

Switch is Netgear gigabit

As I said, I'm using the same switch. My Antipodes and my Devialet are both connected directly to the switch and the switch connects to my Orbi router. I have never seen the "Audio file is loading slowly" message, either with Roon streaming music from the drive in my Antipodes or with Roon streaming from Tidal. The indicator lights for each connection on the switch show I've got gigabit ethernet on all connections. I'm not noticing any problem with RAAT and gigabit ethernet.

The only difference between your & my setup is Antipodes for you & Nucleus for me ... 

Now what could be the issue that mine doesn't play yet your does ? 

Anyone comment on this ?

I can think of a big difference between my Antipodes DS and your Nucleus: grunt. The Antipodes is running a Celeron processor and Antipodes under clock their processors. I'm in the process of ordering a Nucleus+ to replace it because I'm starting to run into problems. I updated it's operating system a few days before we got the Roon Ready update for our Devialets and the Antipodes started running slower after the update. I currently can't reliably access my play history in Roon. It still plays music fine but there are some operations in Roon including searching that I routinely do which are now slowing down and accessing history is often impossible, definitely impossible if music is playing and unreliable if music isn't playing. I may have a gigabit connection but that doesn't tell us whether the Antipodes is delivering data at the same speed as your Nucleus. I may be running on a gigabit highway  but I'm currently driving a 60's VW beetle and you're driving a Ferrari by comparison. Perhaps the difference is somewhere in there.

As I said, I'm in the process of ordering a Nucleus. It will be interesting to see what happens when I simply pull the Antipodes from my system and replace it with a Nucleus with no other changes on my network.

The Nucleus may prove to be a not completely successful fix for my processing power problem.

I haven't a clue at this point.  Perhaps the Innuos OS is doing something different.  Who knows...  At least Roon has acknowledged there is an issue (3 weeks ago).   Devialet has not (based on the ticket I submitted a month ago).

• Turn off or disconnect devices that don't appear to be related to the problem. 
  
  
• Disconnect the router from the network (unless the problem only happens with internet-based content)
  
  
• Swap out ethernet cables and switches--if this causes a change in behavior that is a red flag for a hardware failure
  
  
• If you're using a NAS, try playing content from the local SSD instead. If this changes behavior, it points towards a performance issue with the NAS or your network
  
  
• If you're using WiFi, Power-line networking, or 100mbit switches, switch to gigabit ethernet--even temporarily--to learn whether those choices are related to the problem.
  
  
• Reboot machines and devices. If this causes a change in behavior, you've learned that this is a problem that develops over time--which can be an important clue.
  
  
• Avoid running other software, particularly software that makes significant performance demands or interacts with audio hardware. If this causes a change in behavior, it almost always increases the understanding of the issue.

Well, I got a message from Devialet support about a month ago saying basically that they are aware of these issues. Let's see.

I have a very simple gigabit Ethernet network and I'm experiencing these issues all the time with Roon RAAT (audio file loading slowly, small dropouts, etc), so I'm eagerly waiting for a fix. My network is simply just [Roon Nucleus+] <-> [Netgear Orbi router] <-> [Devialet]. All Ethernet cables are basic CAT6 UTP. I have tried adding a Netgear GS108 unmanaged gigabit switch between the Nucleus+ and the Devialet, but that didn't help at all. I have also tried different CAT6 ethernet cables but that didn't help either.

Streaming to other Roon RAAT zones work perfectly fine on this network. Also streaming to the Devialet (using RAAT) works well if the Devialet is connected to the Wifi network. It starts to look like that the problem is somehow related to the gigabit Ethernet network with Devialet.

Am I right in thinking there's no way to set the Nucleus to 100Mb/s?

I haven't tried but maybe it would work if I would buy some old fashioned 10/100 Mb/s switch. The Core Infinity board has a gigabit Ethernet port, so I am expecting it to work perfectly fine in a gigabit network.
