Thanks. You are correct, the Touch did ask me for that and I put that
exact address.

Whichever is least expensive. Any basic switch will do. Doesn't
matter.

Excellent, thanks!
Which switch would you guys recommend? OR should I just throw a dart and
choose?
Netgear GS105 (OR FS105?)
D-LINK DES-105
Linksys SE3005

The ports on the ethernet switch are all the same. Plug any device into
any port you like.
Yes, you should be able to keep the same settings on the PC and existing
Squeezebox.
I don't recall if the steps to configure the Transporter's network
configuration are the same, but it should be similar.
Cool, ok! Thanks guys. So I just plug PC to port 1, Touch to port 2 and
Transporter to 3?
So if I hook a switch between my PC and Touch today do I just keep the
same settings that I have already put into place?

Nothing really to achieve. I was just curious if I could speed up file
access since I tend to power my SBT down from time to time. It's really
not that slow for me (I don't have THAT many files). There's some good
sales this time of year for routers, so I figured trying one wouldn't
hurt. Anyway,

Yeah, I guess I'm not as old school as I was. Although I mainly listen

Oh and I do have a second one, for a back up. Hopefully I'll put it to

Actually, to network more devices all he would need is a network switch,
not a router. It would be easier with a router, though, as he could use

any reason you don't want to simply add a router to your location (even
without the internet connection). Then you can connect the PC to the
router and the Touch can be placed anywhere (connected via WIFI). And
you have the added benefit of using your smart phone (via wifi) to
control the TOUCH.
Cool, ok. Thanks.

mysqueezebox.com is needed mostly for accessing music services. Since
you can't access them anyway without an internet connection, I'm not
sure you'd be missing anything else.

Ok, sounds simple enough...I hope.
What about not accessing mysqueezebox.com? Is there anything I'm
missing? What about setting up the unit? (enabling/disabling features,
etc)

Depending on the age of the PC and (more importantly) it's network
interface card, you may need a cross-over cable to directly connect the
Touch to it. Most modern interfaces autodetect the type of connection
and adjust accordingly but it's something to be aware of.

Last time I looked, the initial setup of the Touch can be a little

in the setup where it asks you to create a mysqueezebox.com account, you
