Would this have to connect through a computer with software, or would it work to wire the ethernet cable to a router? (Sorry, I haven't been keeping up with the finer details of mining...)

Would also like to know this^^^

Do these mine as standalone units?

Edit.

This is on Friedcats first post about these:-

You can type 192.168.0.254:8000/FlashMega on your web browser to update to the
newest firmware on each hashing unit (no internet connection is needed). After that
you can type 192.168.0.254:8000 to access the configuration page.


So it looks as though they are standalone units?
One friedcat's Ethernet controller unit can handle up to 8 tubes.
You can just connect it via your router


Seems to be like the s-1 or the s-3  .  which means a simple cat 5 switch to the router if your router is port challenged .  I have a few s-3's.


 so my router plugs into this

these switches are studs really nice gear.
