This NIC should be stable. What kind of problems are you experiencing? Problem could be on the mesh side of things.

I actually have a few QNAPs but I'm not using it for my music player. 10Gbps might be overkill, but there could be benefits from SFP+ optical. I am using a SFP NIC in my music setup and do think it offers some audio benefits. But I'm using my NIC via pci-e not TB4 so my positives may well not apply to you.

What you decide to go will ultimately depends on you, note that if you using thunderbolt NICs, you might need to add this to your grub boot config:

Code:

thunderbolt.host_reset=false
