Just in case anyone arrives here via google, the duet receiver can quite
easily be set to use ethernet. There's a short blog post that describes
the process 'here'
(http://www.typinganimal.net/wp/2012/05/07/reset-squeezebox-duet-reciever-to-use-wired-connection/).
Basically, 

  
- Push the big button on the front of the Duet receiver and hold it
  down until it flashes red.
- Shut off the Duet controller. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP.
- Turn on Duet controller (and select the Duet receiver, if
  necessary).
- The controller will now give you the option of ethernet or wireless
  connectivity. Select ethernet, and wait a minute while the system runs
  its DHCP queries.
  
At step 4 I had to 'Switch player' on my duet controller, away from the
duet receiver I was trying to set to ethernet, to one of my other
squeezeboxes, and then back again. When I switched back I was offered
the option to use ethernet. I chose the option and after some seconds
the flashing red light on the front of the receiver turned blue. The
controller showed the IP address that the receiver has been assigned by
my router.
