Hi,

Drivers for the gigabit ethernet to usb device for linux do exist:

http://plugable.com/2010/10/18/howto-asix-88178-usb-ethernet-adapter-on-ubuntu-10-10-linux/

The device itself can be found at:

http://www.amazon.com/Plugable-Gigabit-Ethernet-Network-Adapter/dp/B003VSTDFG?SubscriptionId=AKIAJ27KPV45VTL2XA5Q&tag=plugabltechno-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=211189&creative=373489&creativeASIN=B003VSTDFG&link_code=as3

Of course it can be found on ebay much cheaper.

Please take a look and tell me what you think.

Thanks.

The problem is that those drivers are not included in the firmware. I wouldn't know how you would install them. If you're a Linux Techie with some time it might be possible to repack the firmware with those but i really cannot confirm/help.
Maybe it's a good idea for you to look into our 'Other Development' section here: viewforum.php?f=98


Hope this helps & br,

What about wireless network speed?
Isn't it possible to stream from the pc?

Possible of course but there is a limit. 720p should work ok but if it comes to fullhd including hd audio that will not work due to the low transfer/streaming speeds of the WIFI. Also do note that you will need our own AC Ryan WIFI Dongle. We cannot guarantee that any other sticks will work.

cheers,

Also, wireless can be very touchy with interference. I had this graphically illustrated whn using wireless to stream and the GF started using the microwave,

Also, the ACTUAL: throughput over a wireless LAN can be as low as 10% of the RATED speed of the manufacturers because of enviromental considerations.

General Comment: DO NOT USE WIRELESS FOR STREAMING....
