Another Node2i Question


I hope this question has not been asked over and over. I’ve been considering getting a Node2i and unfortunately I have no way of going with the Ethernet route and will rely solely on WiFi as my set up is not set up where I have access to a router. 
I’m with UVerse so I don’t have crazy mbps numbers. How has running the Node strictly WiFi worked for you? Is even worth messing with without being connected to the router via Ethernet?

Thanks,

mine works fine on wifi

i have ok, not great wifi speeds from the provider

i use a mesh system to get good coverage

a separate issue is competing devices within the house on wifi all asking for bandwidth - e.g. teens streaming videos, spouse on zoom calls what have you...
Mine works well with wifi although I did have some hiccups with my wifi mesh setup allocating enough signal to it at first.
That resolved itself through firmware updates to my router I suspect.

Now it works well both wired and wifi.

Keep an eye out for an announcement about a new version of the Node, next week, I think.

+1 on the 2i working well on 5G WiFi (not saying it doesn’t work on anything less - that’s just all I’ve tried). I’ve not had any issues and think it sounds great with Qobuz and BluOS, with external dac. 
Thanks for everybody’s response. You have all given me some good ideas to extend my WiFi network. 
I had feast and famine using the Node 2i on wireless and I think it was more due to my cable company than the Node 2i.

I was able to hard wire it in.  And I'd explore options as a contingency because I like back-up plans :)
