I could do that. But does the laptop then have two connections to the router, one wireless, and one wired? If not I would have to stop the music and close open files etc, then reconnect everything via the wired, just to restart everything again when going back to the wireless. Can be done, but frankly I may as well just turn the music off when I transfer large files. Unfort I do transfer large amounts of data a couple of times a week so a bit of a drag ..
Have taken a quick look at the powerline alternative. Seems for compatibility you have to go for "homeplug" which is a max of 85mbps which I guess is ok (better than wireless, but not the new N standard). Have to say am getting bored of having to buy endless new electrical widgets! -- rbl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rbl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4517 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80802 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
