Indeed - that's how my own setup looks, so I see that my Mac ethernet interface runs at 100Mbps, presumably because the switch that it's connected to is not gigabit-capable. But I suppose it's possible that the dedicated audiophile would connect the server directly to the Touch in the pursuit of ultimate SQ. This mod seems to suppose that gigabit must be more taxing on the Touch processor so it must be limited to 100Mbps. But as far as I can tell from the specs, it doesn't do gigabit anyway. kiat;608105 Wrote: > My ReadyNas Due is running the SqueezeboxServer directly internally. > Both the Win7 and ReadyNas is running at 1000MBit Does your ReadyNas connect to a switch or directly to the Touch? Is the complete path from the ReadyNas to the Touch gigabit-capable? -- chill ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84742 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
