Ethernet


I’m considering using a 25 foot ethernet cable run from my router to my Node N130 instead of using wi-fi. Will there be an improvement by bypassing the wifi receiver inside the Node? Any recommendations/input would be much appreciated..

From your Ethernet hub like the LHYsw6  the end Ethernet  cable that goes to your digital source , That cable should be by far your best ,and makes the most difference.

Wow ! Thank you for your generosity of sharing this! I was told it was not possible. Eero tech told me it would work for a few hours, perhaps days then an error message would show on the Eero. Maybe its just the Eero 7 Max. Ive been banging my head trying to figure this out. I am so glad there people out there smarter than me. lol/ May I ask what 2.5mm DC audiophile cable you used? I am new to this and as I mentioned thankful.

I ordered the cable and adapter through Amazon.  It checked my order and I ordered the 2.1mm version.  This cable has options for 1 meter, or 2 meter, or combinations of 2.1mm and 2.5 mm..  So depending on your LPS and adapter, order accordingly.  

Here is the cable I ordered:
