I have had the same problem in the past (drop outs, Roon NUC no longer seeing the Devialet as a RAAT endpoint for no reason, etc...). This ruined every weekend listening session, either because of the actual drop or because of the stress of anticipating the drop.
When the new OS came out, I immediately installed and I also did the following:
- put a 10/100 Mbit switch between my main Gigabit switch and the Devialet, thereby creating a choke point for the data, limiting it to 100 Mbit
- disabled wifi completely in the config
- rebooted everything (can't remember the exact order in which I brought everything back up)
Since then, I have had zero incidences. Because of the fact that there are 3 changes made (new OS, new ethernet config and disabling wifi), it becomes hard to say which of these changes impacts what. All I can say is it worked for me. YMMV.
The rest of my system:
- music files on a Synology NAS, wired to a Gbit switch, plus a Qobuz subscription, run from inside Roon
- Roon ROCK on a NUC, wired to the Gbit switch
- Dev expert pro 220 with Core Infinity
