Ethernet Bridge For Streaming


I am finally taking my first step into streaming. I am considering the Innous Zen mini Mk 3 Server that requires a wired Ethernet connection. My router is on the other side of the house and I cannot run a cable to my system because my house is on a slab foundation. Running the cable through the attic and down the inside of a wall is not feasible.  

My question, will using a bridge like this work:   https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FIAVYE2/?coliid=I2DGI7TKG2C5PH&colid=22A77MG2FTAN6&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1
If yes, can you please recommend other similar devices that you are using that might be more effective. 
I am not that well versed in the digital world.
Thanks.

Hello ericsch!

Yes.  A powerline ethernet adapter is a very workable solution.
It's just the solution that I've employed to get wired ethernet from my router on the lower level of a split level to my living room.
I happen to use Netgear powerline ethernet adapters,
and very much like the downloadable Netgear Genie software which allows you to monitor the through put in Mbps (megabytes per second).

Do be aware that not all electrical outlets in a given household will provide the same throughput.  It can be variable.  The key is that one of the outlets convenient to which you wish to install your rig has provides sufficient bandwidth for the task.
