OK. I'll let you know how I get on.

As I said in my previous post, you could try to use the Sonos mesh network for your Akurate DS. You can use the Sonos mesh network for things other than Sonos.
So it would be router Ethernet cable to Sonos unit -- mesh wireless -- Sonos unit -- mesh network -- Sonos unit Ethernet cable to Akurate DS. The mesh network can extend networks as one unit only has to be able to "see" the next unit.
If you already have 3 Sonos units you can try this out.
This should operate the same as a direct link from your wifi router to the Akurate DS.
