the other solution (what i've been doing) is to use an airport express (or the like,) as a bridge, and then you're able to put the "hardwired" zoneplayer where you actually wanted it in the firstplace. In terms of usability, the end result is exactly the same, plus, you then have extended wireless range in that area, not just extended mesh network range. Only downside is that sonos doesn't officially "support" this solution - meaning, no tech support calls. since i've never needed to call them, don't see much of a downside.

Forget using an Airport Express, use Meraki. You can get three repeaters for the price of one AE.
