I have been using Raspberry Pi+(Version 1) for years with Volumio 1.x and it has been great but since most of my tracks are FLAC, Gigabit can help.<\/p>\n
I almost bought Odroid C2 which has built-in Gigabit network but for the price and purpose of my main usage, I settled with Raspberry Pi+ 3 with USB Gigabit Adapter.<\/p>\n
I tried two(2) different USB Gigabit Adapter for Volumio 2.0, Linksys USB 3.0(https:\/\/amzn.com\/B00LIW8TBG) and TRENDnet USB 3.0(https:\/\/amzn.com\/B00FFJ0RKE).<\/p>\n
The TRENDnet USB 3.0 Gigabit adapter works fine but it has a bit of issue with providing steady stream of the data so I hear “chirps” during play.<\/p>\n
The Linksys USB 3.0 Gigabit adapter does not have that problem.<\/p>\n
Here is what I had to do to Volumio 3.0 in order to recognize and use USB Gigabit adapter:<\/p>\n

\nauto eth1
\nallow-hotplug eth1
\niface eth1 inet dhcp<\/p>\n
