    Wireless DM500s?

    Hey guys just a quickie, had a look around but got a bit confuddled with what I was reading..

    So my mate is picking up a dm500s but dont want to run a big ethernet round his room, can these be made wireless like the dm800? I know they dont have a USB port so whacking in a cheapo usb wireless dongle is out of the question.

    Do I have to use a wifi bridge in this instant or is there some kind of ethernet to usb converter that we can use with a cheap dongle?

    Cheers

    wifi bridge is your best bet mate, or else homeplugs

    either way it makes it wireless, wifi bridge though takes up less room

        I picked up a pair of Orange Devolo homeplugs for about 28 quid off Ebay and they work a treat.

                Hi Mate

                Did you replace all 3 or just the third one
