+1. Nothing you can do will be as useful as running actual ethernet cable to as many players as possible. At one location I have Router > dumb switch > ethernet cable in walls to most rooms > small dumb switch > cable to SB players, TV, Roku, etc. Only my Radio is wifi (and I move it around a bit with battery). At another location I have router > MoCa > cableTV cable in wall > dumb switch > cable to SB player. In addition have router > MoCa > tvcable in wall > Vortexbox. And at second location also have radio that is WIFI (and battery). I would use ethernet over powerline now instead of MoCa. But both work. *Location 1:* VortexBox 4TB (2.2) > LMS 7.8 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Location 2:* VBA 3TB (2.2) > LMS 7.8 > Touch > Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Office:* Win7(64) > LMS 7.8 > SqueezePlay *Spares:* VBA 4TB, SB3, Touch (3), Radio (3), CONTROLLER *Controllers:* iPhone4S & iPad2 (iPeng7 & Squeezepad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win7(64) laptop Ripping (FLAC) - dbpoweramp, Tagging - mp3tag, Streaming - Spotify ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101213 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
