Well, after changing the routers channel no to "1" it stays connected
all the time in any room. So I am hoping that this is the end of my
woes.
Thanks to everyone who replied with help/suggestions.
I did a bit of digging with the search function on SN, and came across
a thread from someone with
The specs of the DAC chip are only a small piece of a very large puzzle
when it comes to sound quality. Simply comparing those won't tell you
which overall system will sound better - only actually testing them can
do that.

I have a similar setup, and for a while I ran both digital and analog
outputs into my HT amp. Once I adjusted the input of the analog side
level to be similar to that of the internal dac output, I couldn't tell
the difference between the two sonically- the NAD uses Crystal Dacs I
believe.
Then I
There's no simple answer. Try both, and use which ever sounds better to
you (or if they're the same - it doesn't matter).

I have also seen many posts here from people who buy a Duet and then
sell the SBR on Ebay. I have no idea what they're getting for them.

No, the SB Receiver (SBR) does not have any features or improvements
over the SB3. It has a different DAC, but it is pretty much equivalent
to the DAC in the SB3. Mostly the SBR is an SB3 without the vacuum

The recent work in 7.3.3 and 7.4 is only to further _simplify_ SC
management on a WHS, not to enable it. Any version should run on the WHS.
