11Mbps is tons for internet radio.
Most stations are 128Kbps or less. CD is only 320kbps.
The reason the Internet radio is cutting out is loss of available data available to the router or from the router, as mentioned computers on the same router will soon use up the available data. If being usec as business, There may be 11mbps this is a lot but how much is getting to the amp, this Is were the issue is, and most properly the root cause of the loss of Internet radio.
This is why the radio is cutting out because its not getting all its available information to the amp to broadcast the station.
Also some tills and blue tooth chip and pin devices all use the network, another area were data will be used up.
