A850 Location

[rab909693]

Hi. Can anyone give me any info about relocation of my Phoenix HD A850. I want to move my box upstairs. What I want to know is, can I use a USB WIFI dongle to get my box running or do I need a mile of Ethernet cable to run from my superhub? Thanks

If you don't want to run new cable I would suggest the best way to go about connecting the box to the net upstairs would be to use powerline adapters to send your broadband signal through your electrical sockets.

Not sure if a wifi dongle would work as it would be connected via usb. Someone else maybe able to advise.
