I have spent 3-4 years experimenting , Fiberoptic sucks some life out of the music
these are keys buy a modem- router combo ,I bought the latest Motorola 8702 that has docsis 3.1 especially if you have separates
get rid of the wall wart crap power supplies ,put in linear power supplies
to the router you want something decent minimal little green computer$299 look on bottom of router ,voltages normally 12v -4 amp
the best one use by far is the Linear Tube Audio LPS $750 and comes witha great DC cable that goes to the router ,others charge $150 for included$750
then buy a good Ethernet hub which I found for $600 which is very good
and Quality Ethernet cables, and usb cables a must ,Dac is the most crucial being the sourse. And makes a big difference then a server,streamer like a innuos
or something similar. Good digital ,like good analog cost $$ imo $10 k minimum
