fsmithjack Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Alex, John and/or others can I ask you a EtherRegen use question/advice? SITUATION: Today I sold my SGC sonicTransporter I5 and purchased an Antipodes EX Server. - Note: The Antipodes EX has 2 Ethernet Ports and sonicTransporter I5 had only 1 Ethernet Port This is how I was using my EtherRegen before todays sale of sonicTransporter I5 and purchase of Antipode EX eR Side A had sonicTransporter I5 > Verizon FiOS Router plugged in eR Side B had Ethernet DAC (Bricasti MISE - Ethernet DAC) plugged in QUESTION Now with the purchase of Antipodes EX with its 2 Ethernet ports what is best way to use with EtherRegen? - Should I plug Verizon FiOS Router into one port of Antipodes EX and use the 2nd port to feed into eR Side A and then eR Side B to feed my DAC. Only difference from sonicTransporter I5 use being that I will be putting the Verizon FiOS Router into one port of the Antipode EX rather than another port on eR? or - Should put eR before Antipodes EX? I am just not sure the best way to use this new server with 2 Ethernet ports with my EtherRegen and my AfterDark Clock. I know I can try them both and see what I like best but wanted to ask what you guys think will work best? I would rather just do it best and stick with it.

This is probably going to be the best way to do it, especially if you have an external clock on the ER. John S. Thanks John - Also the AfterDark clock is amazing! I power it just like you recommended and love it! Thanks again ...
