Hard wire via ethernet.
Buy a quality switch with enough ports.
Ie :
Drill a hole and be done with it.
Use 2 cables
one from the router to the switch second keep dead with one end at the router the other end at the switch.

Stick to the powerlines. I use a powerline, never had any problems. Rather have my powerlines than wifi.

I currently operate 9 rigs all over my house, using similar adapters. I do see few disconnects during the day though, but not serious enough to impact revenue. Are you saying you are going to have 300 of those in the same room??? Wow.

Wifi is hit or miss. Just depends on your local area and if there is a lot of interference . If he gets what you link above he could try it and return it if it does not work. op will have 30 6-7 card rigs or 180 to 210 cards? At op lots of heat . lots of it ! 20kwatts if they are 1070's that is 80,000 btus 30 kwatts if they are 1080 tis that is 120,000 btus

I suspect I don't have much interference - we live in a suburb residential area and our house is a corner unit. Only one neighbour right next to us. No house behind ours. Still, if PowerLine is more reliable, I'd rather go that way. It should be cheaper too...

Yes a lot of heat! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Currently, I have 50 1080 Ti's. Those already produce quite a bit of heat. I'm prepared for more heat though but with proper ventilation. I will mix some 1070s in there to control hotspots. I can also throttle GPUs. At least that is my plan... ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

The main router (nighthawk) is on the second floor, PS4 is in the basement. I was getting massive packet drops. I upgraded to a new one and haven't had any issues. The USB adapter I posted is rock solid. No disconnects at all.

power line will be iffy since you are running 200 cards.
me,
I would drill and drop the 2 wires
but I would give the wifi linked above a shot.
Why would PowerLines be iffy? Too much noise in the line because of the cards? If I am forced to go WiFi, perhaps it might be better to go with my original plan - get another Orbi satellite then split from there? It has to be more reliable than 30 individual WiFi adapters, no? Also, dropping wires is kinda complicated - the basement room is not directly below where the router is. In fact, it requires quite a bit of wiring to get there. Still, I may consider that as an option if that is the most reliable approach. Thanks for your feedback!

I am working with a HVAC guy. I'm aiming for a full recycle of air every 10 secs or so. Plus fans blowing directly behind each rig so no stale air anywhere. Remember, I am already operating 9 of these... ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Not sure if connecting them using 30 of these adapters is a good idea...

It would be fine, however, if you are worried about it, my best recommendation is to get dedicated internet in the room from your ISP. Just have them run the cable to it and get a router.

What do you mean when you say you upgraded to a new one? You mean PowerLine to WiFi adapter?

Thanks for your feedback! yes the lines will be getting 30 power supply waves on the ac level if you have 30 rigs with 30 psu's

I did say I would consider adding lines... There's going to be a lot of exposed wires. The biggest challenge will be my wife. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)
