anyone tried the new N wireless option yet?

[sabre]

Well, after trying the Belkin with no luck, I have a TrendNet TEW-644UB (on sale for $15 at Buy) on the way. I also put together a long list of RT2870 adapters, and found a cheap one on Amazon for a relatively random adapter. May get lucky.

[sabre]

Not sure if any follows this thread anymore. But the I can confirm the Trendnet adapter does work on the HD200. However, it will only work if I turn OFF wireless security - when I turn it on, on WEP (I know), it will not work.

Anyone come across this?

[panteragstk]

Are the adapter requirements the same for the HD300 as they are for the HD200? Same as everyone else I'm trying to find a good 5ghz adapter for it. Tried powerline networking in the location I plan to use it an it was a no go.

@sabre - Would you be willing to post the list you compiled of Ralink 2870 chipset based USB adapters perchance? tnx.

Additionally I have started a thread in the Hardware forum asking those that have had success with wireless USB to post their working device information, that thread is available here.

Thanks!

here it is -- can confirm the Encore and Trendnet ones. I think the Belkin should work (i was able to see wireless networks, but not able to connect to router). Planex confirm does not work.

Greetings,

I have a couple of HD200 at home. I am moving and will like to know which wireless adapter should I buy: The ENCORE ENUWI-N Wireless, the ENUWI-N3 or the ENUWI-N4? Please respond at your earliest convenience. Anticipated thanks.

ENCORE ENUWI-N Wireless. That's the one the Sage store sold. The others won't work.

Did anyone uses the Encore ENUWI-N and had very poor receiption despite the proximity of the wireless router to the SageTV client? I am! Every other wifi card in the house give me almost 5 bars!

I guess none use the Encore ENUWI-N anymore!

How did you set yours up? I just got a 664UB and tried it on both of my HD200s and couldn't get either of them to recognize anything but wired ethernet. I can set up a separate SSID with MAC filtering if security messes with the adapter.

The wired MAC on one is blank, but it's port is dead I'm sure. Lightning got it, 4 wires opened in the patch cord, and the port on my gig switch. Funny thing is, if I connect the laptop to that switch port I can surf the web on it.

I'm running my spare, but flaky, HD100 until I can find a work-around to the dead rj45 port on the 200.

I just updated to the latest software posted on the HD200 thread and still a no-go for the Trendnet 664UB. Either the internals are really hosed or it just doesn't work.

Are you aware of THIS? I'll post the working solution shortly in a separate thread.
