Fiber optic cable just before the streamer. Use a tx and rcvr box then a good Ethernet to the streamer. This will effectively take all the noise out of the Ethernet connection from the router. An amazingly cheap upgrade that is very incredibly effective and noticeable!
Help optimizing my streaming setup
My streaming setup is pretty simple and sounds very good right now, but I'm wondering if I can do anything between the router and the streamer to make it better. I'm not interested in a DAC upgrade at this time. My virtual system is not up to date. The system is:
Verizon FIOS router>6 meter DH Labs Reunion Cat 8 ethernet cable>Aurender N100SC>Oyaide DR-510 spdif>DAC
Since I'm able to hardwire the streamer to the router, would a switch provide any benefit? I'm aware of the Eno that some of you guys seem to like and have been looking into them. Would an LPS for the router do anything? Is there anything else I can do?

A member on audiophile style recommended this. He explained only using one (just before the streamer) worked better than two (one at each end of the cable run). Very cheap, and he said it works well. I have yet to try it. @jerryg123 that converter looks like a good way to go!

I’m using a Netgear Powerline 2000, so I have a cat8 cable from the router to one of the boxes and have two cat 8 cable from the other box to my Hegel and my streamer. Would the EverStar work in this setup? Would I need more than one?
