wifi bridge for dreambox dm500S
Hi Forum members,
I just acquired a dreambox DM500S. I have a wires router but this is located far away from the place where I wish to place the dreambox. Instead of wiring from the router to the receiver, I thought of using a wifi bridge. Does anyone on the forum know whether Vonets WIFI Bridge of the Model VAP11G, can be the solution instead of the wire?

Works well with a Dm500
Hi, excuse my ignorance. I'm not very technically inclined. Still on the Vonets Wifi bridge for dreambox DM500S. I read somewhere that one should install the CONFIGURATOR software. Anyone knows what this means and how this is done? Where does one install this configurator software?
the wireless adapter works ok, but nothing can replace the reliability of a hardwired connection. Depending upon how far away you are located and the density of your walls, it may not work that well
In terms of the configuration software, you need to install it on your PC to configure the VONETS unit with the details needed to conenct to the wireless router. It's very simple to do
I found the same with a D-Link wireless AP in client mode. Worked great for CS but recording was choppy. Plugged in a cat5 and got good recordings. If recording isn't an issue go wireless as I reckon wireless is great.Originally Posted by zacker

mate they look good but a bit pricey for me, whaTS THE COST FOR 2 ?
You use the configurator software on your PC to do the initial setup of the unit, ie. tell it which wireless network to join, which password to use, etc. After that you just plug it in to the dreambox.
I've swapped a lot of my wifi stuff out for these Netcomm Powerline thingys.
Uses the electricity wires to create a network between two points. I don't know how it would go for recording but the speeds I'm getting streaming DVD's over the network is much faster and there aren't any dropouts when the microwave gets turned on.
Bit pricey new though. I picked up three for just over $100 on eBay, second hand, but they seem to go for about $70 each normally.
