I guess if he likes pointlessly wasting his free time it'll be an excellent way to achieve precisely nothing.Thanks. It would be very interesting indeed to experiment with router to ee8 5m then ee8 to streaming bridge 2m (or less if you can make that work)… though it sounds like you’d need to invest in one of those 2 or 3 way mini-bricks to get an extra power socket! If you can’t plug the Zen Mini etc direct into the router, I’d personally out a cheap switch at that end and move EE8 to hifi end which is where it was designed to go (hence included 1m cable).
If you can ever be bothered of course!
If it makes you happy, rock on dude. Believe in Xenu or The Flying Spaghetti Monster.It might look stupid to you (I’m not sure I’d be quite so insulting myself) and I can see why, but this is why I think it makes sense to test the theory of “this can’t possibly do anything so why should I even try?” with a £20 switch installed in the right place. Sometimes you’ve got to put down your copy of What Car and test drive the thing. In fact, I think £20 might be an exaggeration and you can pick up a Zyxel GS108B for £17 off Amazon.
I was hugely sceptical just 9 months ago. No I won’t be trying cable lifters or grounding boxes using the same “just try it, you never know” logic; I might be stupid but I’m not daft!
