OK, 218 up and running but!

Direct Digital in from CD Player is perfect & SQ very promising.
However, 192kHz on digital input from network player (fed by iMac-Roon) is suffering from intermittent "dropouts" at irregular intervals.
I am starting to think that the network connection is dropping (I feel a Wireshark session coming on 🤔).

Also, I don't appear to be able to setup the 218 as a Roon endpoint. Roon zone control indicates a broken link (when specifying IP address in setup)! Network scan + individual pings suggest that network connections (Ethernet) are good?
Roon is detecting the 218 as "HQplayer," when I tried using "localhost" setup but, when trying to play anything I get error message "transport couldn't connect to HQPlayer"!

I still have a couple of things to try but any thoughts/suggestions would be welcome.

TIA
