Small switches do exist for sure, but ones that are by default ethernet powered are harder to come by. Typically you put a PoE adapter at your router and the "tap" at the switch. They are pretty pricey though as they are made for remote mounting equipment where power doesn't exist, not just hiding wires. It might be worth a call to slim to have them see if there is something they can do in a future firmware update to remedy this. -- Jonnio ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jonnio's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=18575 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55582 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
