They do make such things: a wireless bridge. They tend to be spendy though. > > Outside of that, are you saying a simple hub would connect the Touch > and the Vortex Box, creating their own network, just without internet > access or access back to my current network...? yes, they both have ethernet. And if you want Internet, you could take another hub port and attach a powerline adaptor to that and put one upstairs with the router. If the Vortex/Touch are in the same room, wiring those two is easy. No reason to make two 'runs' back to the router, especially not wireless: sending a packet from downstairs (VortexBox) -> upstairs (router) -> downstairs (Touch) would be icky. If it's a problematic path, that would very likely push it over the edge. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=73733 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
