Not that I ever will need to try since I'm perfectly happy with my 3 silvers and dialog... but anyway!

Hi folks
Just been reading with bemusement your posts about this topic..
Devialet, like Sonos will use a secure, AES-encrypted, peer-to-peer wireless mesh network to connect to each other...
Dialog is just a router able to built the network for designated devices (phantoms) and the Ethernet connection is just to open the door to the outside world...
If you are in your network.. you can check the wifi connections in your house.. you will see several connections called "DialogNetwork"... You can't access that network.. because it is encrypted to be used by the same connection...
I have got three silvers at home with one solo upstairs and never had any issue connecting to the dialog located downstairs... (With thick wall between..)
Yes, it is true, it can connect to the number of device stated....
Hope the above helps
