Would the fact that the wired connection is perfect indicate its to do with wifi not dns?

Also I'm having another problem I don't know if its related, I haven't looked into it yet. I've two chromecasts, one video and one audio. The video is fine but the audio needs to be set up every day.

Not that anyone cares but I had firmware B030,support upgraded me to B036. Got rid of dnset and its perfect now. Shouldn't have to go through this especially with a new modem.
