AV receivers with LAN input
LAN
— standard interface for wired connection of various equipment (including AV receivers) to computer networks, including to access the Internet. Due to the presence of a wire, it is less convenient to connect than the Wi-Fi described above. On the other hand, a LAN connection wins in terms of connection reliability and actual data transfer speed — especially if there are many wireless devices on the network and Wi-Fi channels are loaded (which is not uncommon, because Wi-Fi modules are very popular in modern electronics). Therefore, for working with large volumes of data — for example, watching high-definition video via DLNA (see below) — LAN is better suited.Show
