This is about Ethernet vs WiFi concurrently or either/or.

The WiFi connection and the Ethernet connection on the Devialet will (most likely) not work simultaneously. There is no reason for that, since the load will not be shared among both connection types. My guess is that if the Devialet sees an Ethernet connection then it will use that because it is a lot faster than WiFi.

If someone thinks that the D-app on an iPad connects to the Devialet over WiFi directly, bypassing the WiFi access point, then that is wrong. The iPad communicates over WiFi with the WiFi access point/router and if the Devialet is wired over Ethernet with this WiFi router then the communication to the Devialet goes via Ethernet.

In my case, the WiFi connection is really bad, but then again I have the WiFi access point not 30cm away from the Devialet, but 2 floors away. It seems even the D-app can't communicate over WiFi. I need Ethernet and then everything (AIR, UPNP and AirPlay) works just fine.

Hi PeterS, I have a friend set up a powerline connection for a Devialet. Runs for a few months, no disturbances, he is fully satisfied. As devices I used Devolo dLAN 1200+ Starter Kit Powerline. It works Tidal via UPnP without any problems. Should be worth a try!
