printer, i have an interesting set up in my house (Ethernet backbone, Powerline and Wireless).. my preference wherever possible/feasible is wired to "fixed" devices (but my family does a lot of video viewing). but if you don't want Ethernet try Powerline (use your electrical system for data transfer and i've used it for years get maybe 100mbs reliably).. it is very simple to set up ...a couple of the devices are hard wired but one is a dlink that also works as a wireless extender (and it works great outside to extend wireless over my entire property)...do you do Bluetooth wireless (primarily cellphones of friends/family can play direct to my bluetooth enabled AVR?) one problem with wireless is that bluetooth while very convenient is pretty weak and with all other wireless interference (i think BT is 2.4 band) that is where quality degrades.. regards,
