1) buy the DKC850 - probably the best choice
2) buy a MIDI to wireless converter - also very expensive ($400) there are still a few on the market
3) modify a MIDI cable so that one end plugs into an ethernet port. I have seen this done and it worked fine. The guy used trial and error to get the connections wired correctly. I think there are only four wires. Anyway, I put some cable diagrams on the new version of MIDI Player Tools at: www.midiplayertools.com which covers in more detail all of the above options.

I have a DKC 500R XG with a DCD1 cd player. I would really like to network this. Is there any way other than getting a DKC 850? The 850 is too expensive.
