@steakster: I purchased the SR router & switch from the largest SR dealer in the world; Scott Walker Audio. Included in the shipment was a round antenna to be ceiling or wall mounted along with a SR ethernet cable for connection to the router. I was guided for installation by Josh Doyle at Scott's Texas store. There was immediately a SR channel on our laptop's wifi settings that had to be activated for connectivity. If anyone knows how it works it surely should be them. All I know is that our Roon connectivity problems, with them removed, are now gone. I'm glad yours is working well for you. I am a fervent advocate of SR products & cables (have over $100,000 in their power cables & interconnects; plus another $70-80,000 in their components); but the router & switch didn't do it for us.

Over the years, I've purchased several SR products from Scott Walker, He and his sales team are usually very thorough with their customer support for equipment set-up and usage. Ever since I've converted over to SR cabling, the SQ of my system has improved significantly.

I my case: SR interconnects, between tonearm and Phono stage, then: Pre and Main monoblock amps, Their power cords from wall to Stealth XXX Purifier and wall to Subwoofer amp. All the MPCs: upgraded by Michael Spallone.
NONE for sale!
The rest of my interconnects (sources') are Kimber Selects (1030 and 1130), which play very nicely with the SRs.
All other power cables are Zu Mothers.
Fuses are from SR and Hi-Fi Tuning.
Big Silver Oval speaker cable.
Nothing very expensive!
I DO appreciate companies that allow a person 30 days to decide whether they like their products or not. Synergistic has been offering that trial period, for some forty years now (since the Eighties).
A rewind:
No one can tell you whether/how your system, room and/or ears will respond to some new addition. There are simply too many variables.
LIKEWISE: no one can possibly know whether a new addition (ie: some kind of disc, crystal, fuse, interconnect, speaker cable, etc) will make a difference, in their system and room, with their media and to their ears, without trying them for themselves.
Some companies offer a 30 Day Satisfaction Guarantee, so- those that are actually interested, have absolutely nothing to lose by trying (experimenting with) such.
Anyone that knows anything about the sciences, realizes that something like 96% of what makes up this universe, remains a mystery.
For centuries; humanity’s seen, heard, felt and otherwise witnessed phenomena, that none of the best minds could explain, UNTIL they developed a science or measurement, that could explain it.
The Naysayer Church wants you to trust their antiquated science (1800’s electrical theory) and faith-based, religious doctrine, BLINDLY (their credo: "Trust ME!").
Theories have never proven or disproven anything. It’s INVARIABLY testing and experimentation that proves or disproves theories/hypotheses.
IF you’re interested in the possibility of improving your system’s presentation, have a shred of confidence in your capacity for perceiving reality and trust your own senses: actually TRY whatever whets your aural appetite, FOR YOURSELF.
The Naysayer Church HATES it, when THAT happens!
Happy Listening!

If I had that kind of money, everything in my system would still be a mix of Kimber and SR. BUT: much newer and higher in their product lines.

I bought the Synergistic dots at Axpona 2022. They work. Weirdest tweak I‘ve encountered in audio. I made the mistake of pulling one off of my USB cable going into the DAC once while the music was playing. System made a pop sound and the music stopped. Thought I had broken something but I hit play and the music started again. Don‘t touch the dots unless the system is muted. I don‘t use them now except for two that I put on my two dedicated circuit breakers. They don‘t seem as effective that far away from the equipment. I no longer need them but how would I ever sell “dots“?
