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?

@cleeds unbunch them for Pete’s sake... You intentionally omit parts of comments all the time. If you meant no foul my bad. Can you admit the the same and move on? Often this is what a thread here becomes just nasty uncalled for spewing of childish "gotcha" bale, I stated earlier lets be civil in our communication I had people like you in mind.

I have no idea what you are talking about.

I suggest you take whatever complaint you have about me to the moderators. I have no idea what your issue is.

Inexpensive but good sounding solution for me was short ethernet cable from router to fiber media converter box to fiberoptic cable to another FMC box and short Ethernet cable into my Dac streamer

@musicfan2349 I remembered seeing "daisy chain topogrphy" as an explanation in Asus’s set up guide see page 10 of the link.

If you look at Asus’s expalnation in advertisments etc they refer to the technology as "daisy chaining routers". Google it. Your explanation is more complete but for most this is an easy wrap around.
