I realised it would be much cheaper and future-resistant to build a 'render box' than significantly upgrade either of my CAD_Tower's now-ageing twin GPU cards...

As Box' graphics need only support VGA , this means you can fit a 'Basic Office' GPU card, an old display. But, the more CPU cores, the better. Mine renders with ~15½ of its 16. One 'gotcha' is my twin GPU cards like Superfly with 1024 vols & buckets. For 'CPU-only' renders, eg on 'Box', these must be dropped to 64 else stalls out...

Yes, all of the above points by Richard60, especially the 'same version' thing.

What beat me for weeks was Window 10's exasperating network security stuff. The error messages do not give a clue to what's wrong. In the end, I realised that the error messages were looking at sorta-flipside of problem, dug deeper, found yet-another poorly documented networking menu. One last check-box and we were in business...

Uh, please may we have a forum for queue rendering and its quirks ??
