I use an Eero mesh system with one of the Eero nodes in the listening room and an ethernet cable to the Innuos. It works great
Innuos with wi-fi
I am using Innuos Sense with a Zen MK II. DAC is Ayre QB-9 Twenty.
!> I see a gain control on the sense app, but it does not appear to affect the volume. Should it, and if so what setting am I missing?
2> I may in the future need to use this set up in an environment with only wi-fi internet. Has anyone successfully been able to use a wi-fi to ethernet adapter, examples?

My innuos pulse mini is at 100% and the selected dac controls volume output, either to amp or pre-amp. Some dacs have filter settings where the dac volume control is “bypassed”(?) and is 100% and that is for use through a pre-amp. (Ie, gustard r26 dsd direct) I absolutely hated wifi.. media converter at router, run long lengths via fibre optical, then media converter back to ethernet and a, very, short cable to innuos. Only spent about $100 and the sq clean up is great. |
+1 @jperry Get a mesh system and run a good Ethernet cable from the node to your streamer. |
Let me give additional background to my question. We are starting to visit retirement communities in anticipation of having to move within a few years to an independent living apartment. This will require a drastic downsizing of my stereo system, with the Zen as the basis. The first community we visited furnished internet access though wifi with no ethernet wiring. I an not installing any internet system. I just need to know if I can get the Innuos to function with an adapter. Thanks for any help. |
Probably don’t want to setup any streamer directly on a public wifi connection. I’d look into the wireless client connect, dhcp on lan side over ethernet cable to in apartment devices.
