Hey everyone.

My question concerns connecting a couple of Blade Erupters to my router (and in turn giving me access to the operational panel of each blade, of course).

How should I go about connecting a couple of the devices? I don't want to connect each one into a different port in my router because I don't have that many free ports available.

From what I gathered, it might be possible to connect all of my blades into a switch. I don't know much about networking, so that's why I'm asking these questions. So, can i connect them to network switches? What kind of switch (or other device) should I get? Is there a limit (besides the number of available slots in the device) of how many blades I can connect to one device? Do I understand, that I then connect the switch with just one cable to my router, and have all the blades available to access? is it possible to connect such switch (or other device) to a wifi receiver and connect to that that wirelessly from my router?

Any help, or pointing to existing topics would be very appreciated!

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

You are correct in your thinking Smiley

The above device should allow you to connect up to 7 devices to your router (using the 8th port to connect the switch to your router)
