Networking always work as long as you use the correct kit and keep the design simple. I am afraid you are doing neither. Effectively you are trying to save the price of a data SIM card and appropriate router by picking our brains for ideas but without initially telling us the whole picture. The problem is nothing to do with LMS itÂ’s entirely a networking issue. LMS (and probably Roon) requires a working network. Without spending some money you are constantly going to run into these sort of issues. The acronym KISS really does apply to networking.
