Local Library stuttering - USB SSD Drive into Router's USB port

I have a macbook air with barely any space left, so i've bought a Samsung T5 1TB SSD drive. When plugged into my Router (TP-Link Archer C2300) I can mount the music folder okay, and the library is indexed. But during playback (after a few songs usually) it begins to stutter. 

Plugging directly into the Node 2i doesn't work either, as it's formatted in exFat, and I have some large movie files over 4gb so reformatting isn't ideal. 

I don't seem to have the same problem streaming larger movie files through Plex the same way. 

Any ideas how to resolve this issue? Tidal is absolutely fine, and streaming directly off the Macbook Air local library worked fine too...

  I get same issue with SSD plugged into Node 2i directly - new problem not seen before upgrade a month or 2 ago. I've posted on that separately.
