And, if you wanna physically connect this Rpi 0 W to your router's RJ-45 port, you can get this inexpensive 100Mbps Micro USB 2.0 RJ45 Adapter which uses an ASIX AX8872B USBNet chipset. I had tested a similar one with the same ASIX USBNet chipset on my Seagate Dockstar and was able to sustain an up/down-load @90 Mbps on a 100 Mbps switch. Anyway, I just placed an order for use with my Rpi 0.

No and not yet. Still don't know what I can do with this kit. Does it have a built-in audio DSP chip?

didn't open the box yet, need to find time for it. Too cheap, so bought it first :)

If it's just simply an audio system sans any audio DSP chip to process the audio data, then I would rather spend less than $1 to get any (7.1 channels) USB audio dongle, i.e. Portable Audio Adapter Black Usb 7.1 Channel Esternal 3D Sound Adattatore Pc Notebook Card Adapters, 2 Colors Good Application Audio Adapter 3D Sound Card 5.1 USB To 3.5mm Mic Headphone Jack Stereo Headset, etc., for use on my Rpi0 and/or Rpi0W to do the same.

For those who bought either an Rpi0 and/or an Rpi0W, you may wanna stock up this Mini USB 2.0 Micro USB OTG Electronic Charger Converter Adapter US 26¢ or (US 28¢ after the sale is over).

Received this item. I just tested this USB/RJ45 adapter on both my Rpi0 and/or Rpi0W and was able to get about 9/8 MBps R/W throughput on Gigabit LAN with my Seagate GoFLEX Home NAS. So far, so good. I used the following to test the R/W performance on either Rpi0 and/or Rpi0W.
Read test:
dd if=<NFS mounted storage>/Filename of=/dev/zero bs=4M count=128 iflag=direct

Write test:
dd of=<NFS mounted storage>/Filename if=/dev/zero bs=4M count=128 oflag=direct
