Anyone got any instructions for bridging routers to enable iPlayer on my humax? The router is approximately 50m and on a different floor to the TV / humax

Ideally, I'd like a wireless repeater to plug into my humax and use that to connect to the wireless network...

I suppose one of these may work?

Do you know how good a wireless signal you get near the HDR?
A lot I suspect will depend on that.

Just get a pair of Ethernet over mains plugs

I agree, I have done that and it is probably the easiest option. I have also used an old router as a wireless bridge and am currently using a Belkin Wireless G Gaming Adapter Pt. No. F5D7330.
