[QUOTE="Silas Pradetto, post: 47752, member: 34"] Re: M7CL-48ES and SB168-ES with PM5D-RH 1. I would not go so far as to say a "standard router" will work at all. You do NOT want to bet a $20k system of consoles on a $100 router from Best Buy. Also, from what I remember, Yamaha consoles have to use static IPs; so a router (with its implied DHCP server) is completely unnecessary. I'd strongly recommend a gigabit-capable professional switch like the [URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Order=BESTMATCH&N=100010062&isNodeId=1&Description=procurve&x=0&y=0"]HP Procurve[/URL] series. With that you could easily use a real access point and run wireless. 2. You do NOT want shielded cat5 for this use. Ethernet calls for Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable; I'd recommend the CBI heavy-duty portable Cat5e cable, it's been great for me and eliminated the packet errors that the ProCo Dcat5 was giving me. 3. All the iLive products can connect via Ethersound. [/QUOTE]
