Almost all streamers or network bridges (which you can also use) utilize an Ethernet for their input (e.g., using an Ethernet cable connected to your network) and output via USB. This would include hybrid streamer/DACs, which would have an Ethernet RJ45 LAN port, which you would connect to your network.

Your least expensive option is a Raspberry Pi4 or Sonore microRendu at $399. You can go all the way up to about $4K for an Auralic Areis G2.1 or dCS Network Bridge.

Connect your streamer or network bridge to your network via an Ethernet LAN cable, and a USB from that to your Yggy.
