You said you had a wireless AP in the den. What is a wifi switch? (And what's a den? I've often wondered.)
I'm puzzled by that adapter. I can see how a device that has both USB and ethernet ports, like a PC or our routers, could convert an ethernet port to a USB socket - the box is already a USB hub. But an ethernet switch isn't, yet the pictures show it being used with one.
