Pimping your router


1. Use a wired router only
2. If wireless router is needed, separate router for wifi
3. only streamer, NOTHING ELSE connected 
4. use LPS to feed router
5. use shortest possible quality cable to streamer
6. use Acoustic Revive RLT-1 filter on spare router or streamer port
7. wrap router and LPS in EMI/RFI shielding material
8. use EMO EN70-HD filter near streamer for ethernet connection
9. use quality shielded cable between router and internet access point

All of these will individually improve your streaming SQ, in aggregate the effect is significant

I like the idea very much of having wired router only for streaming, then the second one for the wifi and rest of the house.

Wired router out - one port to wireless router and one port to the streamer.....is that right?

Also, how would you control the streamer via wifi then?

 

I just realized that I can control my streamer via Bluetooth and that will answer my question. :)

Any recommendation of the good non wifi router to use just for the streamer and what would be the things to look for in Specs?

Also, if anyone can explain the baby steps for having those 2 routers connected together?

I have a Modem with one connection for router.

What would be the best way to connect my wifi router? From the wired router?

Modem - LAN cable - Wired router - Streamer
