[David Patt 21]

Hello always stream over network cable so i dont have problem with bitrate etc  but now i am only on wifi and my only display is tablet (samsung s7 +) it has usb c. My server us on windows minipc with external hdd. So i get idea to connect over usb but it will connect ? Or i rather get something like rj45 to usb convertor ?

Thank you for suggestions.

Still not getting complete picture: is there a router/modem/switch somewhere in there? Do you want to connect directly to the server machine (in which case you'd need crossover LAN cable) or extend your wired network (in which case you'd use straight LAN cable)? Either way, I reckon you'll be depending on your SoC modem as I seriously doubt your tablet has dedicated controller chip.

Directly to server machine i want avoid shitty router i have from isp provider and right now i cant get any other but have acces to switch. But want avoid it also this will be temporery setup until i move.

Lol - it's two decades since I had to use a cross-over network cable; I've not even seen one since then!
