Connecting 220 to my network

(23-Jul-2019, 21:23)thumb5 Wrote: To clarify, you can use a direct (point-to-point) connection between two Ethernet devices, such as a computer (e.g. Roon Nucleus, Mac Mini, ...) and a Devialet provided:

1) at least one of the devices has automatic cross-over ("Auto MDI-X"), or you use an Ethernet cross-over cable;

and

2) you manually configure a fixed, static IP address on each device, making sure they are different but on the same IP subnet.

Most devices nowadays do have auto MDI-X so usually a cross-over cable is not needed.

The details of how to set up static IP addresses vary from one device/computer to another.  For the Devialet Expert family, it is done using the configurator.

I know. I started a separate thread on how to do a direct point to point connection between a Roon Nucleus or Nucleus+ and a Devialet some weeks ago. It requires the use of a USB to ethernet adapter (the Nucleus and Nucleus+ have only 1 ethernet port and Roon requires a network connection of its own so you need 2 ethernet connections to the server, one for the Roon network connection to the internet and one to the Devialet) and manual IP addresses. The method I quoted in that thread came from a post from Roon's Danny Dulai in one of the Roon forums.

When I said "The second way is what this thread is about…" I was mistaken. I was thinking about the thread I started because I had been dealing with @chungjh 's query also in that thread in recent days and forgot which thread I was responding in.
Roon Nucleus+, Devilalet Expert 140 Pro CI, Focal Sopra 2, PS Audio P12, Keces P8 LPS, Uptone Audio EtherREGEN with optical fibre link to my router, Shunyata Alpha NR and Sigma NR power cables, Shunyata Sigma ethernet cables, Shunyata Alpha V2 speaker cables, Grand Prix Audio Monaco rack, RealTRAPS acoustic treatment.
