Thanks for the tip on the Pangea Ethernet cable. I just purchased the exact same cable in a 2 meter length from AA, it should arrive Monday. I am going to use it between my desktop computer and router. I didn’t buy the cable for the sound per say, but for the better connectors. I unplug my cable from the router when I am not online but still using the computer. Why you may ask, it is because I was hacked, not once but twice. It’s for peace of mind. I have gone through 3 cables already this year so I am hoping this one will last the constant plugging and unplugging. Only time will tell🙂
Pangea Ethernet Cables
I am using Pangea HDMI and toslink cables already, dropping the ethernet cable in the chain was shocking. Best $25 I ever spent. Sounds almost like I upgraded a DAC or my HT processor. Try it and see what you think. I think the KEY for this effect was to have the same Pangea brand in the entire digital chain, ethernet/digital IC/HDMI.

@stereo5 see if there’s an option in your router settings to block and unblock a device. May be easier on the cable, connectors and you to cut the device out of network in settings rather than physically disconnecting the cable all the time… |
@audphile1 , I bought a simple internet cut off switch. It goes between the router and my desktop computer. Push it in for internet and out for off. It closes all 8 pins in the cable and works great. Best $21.00 I ever spent including the shipping. Found it on Amazon. |
