    Multi-LAN question

    I'm not sure if this is possible but I'm hoping someone here can tell me if it is. Setup DSL 1 = IPTV feeds two TV set top boxes via ethernet (supplied by broadband provider and separate from DSL/router). DSL 2 = normal broadband & WiFi. The room that has the DSL 1 TV broadband router sits in...

    Can An ASUSTOR NAS Replace Your HTPC?

    A few comments on this article. * UPnP and DLNA are not the same and unfortunately Samsung have problems with UPnP & DLNA servers though the compatibility issues are more severe with UPnP. Most common DLNA servers now include a profile for Samsung devices to overcome various other issues so...

    Wireless wake on lan

    I've been toying with the idea of getting wake on lan going and from what I've read it is possible to do it via wireless but you need a wireless adapter which supports the WoWLAN standard. There in lies the problem as locating a card is proving very difficult and Google searches are a dead...

    Deciding Between Synology vs. QNAP

    Some things I observed between the two Application development, QNAP hands down the winner, lots of apps are created even if they are not on the official list. By contrast nothing changes with Synology it's been the same old stuff for years, practically no-one ever makes an app for Synology...

    NEW Amped Wireless R10000 600mW wifi 'tests' inside

    Excellent thank you, I already have suitable power packs that can match that so the router should work with those.

    NEW Amped Wireless R10000 600mW wifi 'tests' inside

    Nice, I just saw these on the front page and I'm looking for something with range as well. However I'm not in the USA and would probably have to import one, could you tell me what sort of power it uses ? If it is Input 100-240V~50/60Hz then that is great, what sort of output does it have...

    MoCa Questions

    Thanks for the info guys I checked the splitter on it and it's a regular 2 port 5-1000Mhz model. I'll order the units and hopefully everything will work out, will report back but might take 1 or 2 weeks with shipping.

    MoCa Questions

    I was wondering if MoCa may work in a setup I'm helping a friend with. However the catch is we are in Ireland and MoCa isn't sold outside of USA (although Netgear MoCa can be gotten on eBay), no-one in UK/IE AV forums either have ever tried it out so there isn't a whole lot of info to go on. The...

    Seagate FreeAgent Theater+ HD Media Player Reviewed

    Good review, Seagate actually went the extra mile compared to the other Realtek 1073 chipset players out there, the stock Realtek GUI is incredible primitive. This site tracks most media players with what chipset they are using and you can see dozens of Realtek clones. The Tvix N1 Cafe and...
