    Smile dbox wireless streaming

    Hi all,

    Is there a way to stream from the DBOX to the PC wirelessly?

    Sharing folder is only available via ethernet connection from DBOX to PC but what about wireless connection?

    Thanks you all in advance!

    use a device like a Belkin gaming adapter (also known as a wireless bridge) to have the box connected to your router via wifi... I guess it can work in a peer to peer situation as well but easier to get yourself a netgear wifi router..

    Default wireless streaming

    HI

    You could use a "home plug" which basically uses the earth wire of your house as a network- its 2 plugs that you use a short ethernet cable to connect to dbox then pc connects together over house earth wiring 80-100mbps

    can also be used to connect to router if far from pc and no wireless connection

    approx ?50 fleabay
