Recommendations

For reliable network performance, use a quality Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable and connect to a Gigabit-capable router or switch. If multiple high-power USB devices are connected, consider using powered USB hubs or devices with their own power supplies to avoid overloading the host USB port.
