Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: Thanks Ferenc. My final thoughts.....

Probably it is my fault, that could not explain properly, sorry for my English.

The combined, systemwide effect of analogue modulation, digital noises do not causes signal or data loss. The packetized IP-based communication is well and robustly built against this.

These disturbances can cause higher harmonic distortion (through negative feedback) for example in any gain stage (or clock handling) of the whole system.

One always hears or listen to the whole system, not individual devices in an audio system. It means that a higher harmonic distortion in the gain stages (becasue of a digital noise of a router) of your preamp, power amp or DAC can influence how your speakers sound in your room.

The last meter is the most important, because of these elements. It is not a snake oil. The problem is that we (or the manufacturers) can not predict these influences in our system and difficult to prove it in a scientific way. But only a very few things are really predictable in high-end audio. So it should not be surprising at all.
