To make wifi work, you must have a reasonable quality router and it should preferably not be servicing any other wireless clients. My own setup to the internet consists of an LTE wireless router connected to a hub. There is a 35m LAN cable which connects to an Apple Airport Extreme in another part of the house. I make my wifi devices (TV, iPad, AVR, phones, etc) all connect to the Airport
Only the Devialet and a MacBook are connected to the wifi output of the LTE hub. I configured the LTE router only to allow the MAC address of these devices to connect. The Devialet is less than 2 metres from the router and 200mm from a MacBook Pro
However, I found the Devialet Air app (on a Macbook) to be somewhat inconsistent. There are various connection options, none of which do as I thought they said (auto-connect, etc). The other thing that has happened twice is that the Devialet Air app reports that it cannot find the amplifier.
Seeing there is no electrical connection from the source to the amp, I would expect it to sound somewhat better.
However, between several friends and myself who are accustomed to listening to well set up equipment, we cannot detect any difference. And we have tried hard
