How do I switch from Wi-Fi to Ethernet cables?


My Bluesound Node currently receives Wi-Fi, but I'd like to switch to a direct link. I assume that would be with an ethernet cable from the modem to the Bluesound - with possibly a better switch between the two.

The problem is that my modem is in the basement and the Bluesound is on a different floor. There is not a clear path for running cable. 

Is there a piece of equipment or technology that I could help in this situation?

I would feed the ethernet cable through the walls and put a jack on the wall. Makes life so much easier.

 

Seems your modem is part router, otherwise not sure you’d have Wi-Fi.

Once you have an ethernet Jack on the wall, you’ll have a better connection to feed a network switch that can provide digital Signal more conveniently to a lot of different destinations

 

Don't complicate your life with all this extender stuff. It's not rocket science.
