You have multiple networks: internet, private internal, wireless, and maybe a guest network. All networks can have different speeds. Hopefully you built a 1G internal private network, an AC wireless network, and up to a 1G fiber internet network. Unless you have dozens of people streaming at the same time, a 1G network is plenty fast. Music files are small, you don’t need a 1G network for music.
Cables do make a difference. I use cat7 throughout the house with a cat7 Audioquest cable from the wall to the dac.
