Hi Everyone. I have a remote frontend over wireless. While it<br>generally works ok, when anyone gets on the cordless phone, or<br>someone uses the microwave, we loose connectivity and have to restart<br>the remote frontend. I can't get a wire to this location so am
<br>looking for alternative network methods. I once saw these units to<br>plug into a power outlet. Has anyone used them with Myth? Do they<br>provide enough bandwidth? I'm using just standard def cable. Are<br>
there any recommended brands or vendors?</blockquote><div><br>I used powerline networking for a while, but it didn't work reliably. Things may have improved in the meantime (this was about 4 years ago, before I started using MythTV.) You could also try using
802.11a wireless -- it runs on a different band, and won't be affected by microwave ovens or most cordless phones.<br><br>Before you chuck your 802.11g equipment, you might want to experiment with different channels. You might have better luck at one end of the band or other.
