# What network settings are required for Moodby to perform smoothly?

For the best streaming experience, we recommend using a **wired Internet connection** for devices running Moodby. However, a stable **Wi-Fi network** with strong coverage and performance will also work.

Recommended network settings:

- **Dedicated bandwidth:** at least 0.5 Mbit/s
- **Cache size:** at least 200 MB

*Note: If your Internet connection drops, Moodby will keep streaming music for up to 2 hours from the cached playlist.*
