I think this question has been asked before - probably multiple times - but a search of the subject line didn’t find anything. I did however check to make sure I haven’t asked the question before…
Is there anything to be gained by linking two halves of a stereo pair together with a crossover ethernet cable?
Ok, I’ve asked it, and it looks stupid now it’s written down, but… the thinking is that one half of a stereo pair almost certainly gets sent the whole stereo signal via wifi - it just throws one half away.
And of course the other half of a stereo pair needs the same amount of wifi bandwidth to get the other half of the stereo signal - and it throws the other half away.
But if the two are linked together, one can send the data to the other via the wired network, thus halving the wifi bandwidth used.
Yeah, I know - sounds unlikely, but I had to ask!
