It's so ridiculous, the sweet wife comes home, complains re: my deconstruction of the living room for purposes of troubleshooting, I unplug everything, put the components back in place in two minutes, and three seconds later the network is in perfect working order, zero issues much less troubleshooting between 2 desktops (1: Windows MCE 2005 [direct ethernet connect], 2: Vista Ultimate in-place upgrade from XP Home [connected via powerline adapter]), a notebook (Vista U, wireless connection) and aforementioned dsl modem/router.

Denon what is your problem? Oh, sorry I forgot, it's a "network problem" (as the rep stated, most of the time these things are caused by the router, meaning "we have no clue, you're on your own, don't look to us for any constructive advice").

I'm willing to spend money on interconnectivity after having received such a deal on the 3808 and what with the prospect of a free feature upgrade; however what to buy? What's a mother to do?
