Any Roon Nucleus users?

Does Devialet has issue with Roon RAAT to an Expert Pro over gigabit ethernet? I see people are using it in this way...

Yep, Devialet has lots of issues with Roon RAAT streaming over a gigabit Ethernet network. Roon RAAT over Wifi works quite well, so I'm using Wifi until the problems with Ethernet have been solved.

Thanks for sharing the info. I didn’t realise it.

There are two ways to avoid the Roon RAAT over gigabit network issues (if you're having them)...

1) Use Wifi in the Devialet (assuming your have solid wifi in your home), or

2) pick up a cheap 10/100 mbps switch (under $10 on Amazon) and insert it in front of your Devialet.    This will throttle the gigabit speed down to 100 mbps speed in/out of your Devialet while leaving your Roonserver machine and router operating at full gigabit.

Both Roon and Devialet are, in theory, working on a solution to this issue.   But bumping down the network speed works fine and has no negative impact on performance or sound quality as far as I can tell.    No more dropouts, no more Roon "Audio file loading slowly..." errors.
