how do you stream ethernet quality in a non ethernet (wi fi only) room

Hi, seeking guidance on starting the process for a second streaming system upstairs bedroom where wifi is my only current option

do options exists to achieve ethernet quality?

should I be seeking a wifi server that caches from memory during the stream?

You can easily use a wi-fi dongle on any Aurender, @audphile1.

My streamer has adjustable buffering. Almost anything is an improvement over a laptop. Regards, Mike B.

Some manufacturers recommend wifi vs ethernet.
