That's a great question. And the set-up does seem somewhat convoluted. However, all the audio files and audio equipment connections are on the PC in the other room. I tried the sound drive on the laptop, but it does require having the files on the laptop. I could make the laptop the primary storage for the files but that doesn't make sense for the audio equipment that is wired to the PC. Strangely, the signal from the PC through the router and wirelessly to the Bridge 125 feet away was better than the wireless signal from the laptop to the bridge 5 feet away. -- kewe65 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kewe65's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3295 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21466 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
