Humax FOXSATHDR wirless UBS stick??
Hello all,
I have just got a Humax FOXSAT HDR 320gb... ![]() I would like to get BBC iplayer and my next door neighbour has given me his ‘BT home hub 2’ code so I can use his internet as I don't have internet.. Is there a way I can set up a wireless connection I can’t set up home plugs (I don’t want to be to cheeky and ask to plug them into his house) I have for my computer a Belkin 802.11g Wireless USB Network Adapter or xbox360 USB stick?? Will any of these works?? or Would I need to pay for something like a Belkin F5D7330 Wireless Gaming Adapter I hear this could work?! Anyone can help?!! Many Thanks…

Homeplugs won't work between properties, two reasons
They will be on different phases They won't work through a meter. |

I have successfully used a wireless Belkin gaming adapter to link my Foxsat HDR to my router, although I now use Homeplugs. However, successful connection with wifi would depend on distance to next door's router, wall thickness. number of walls, etc. Best if you could borrow one from someone to try it first.

is it easy to set up a USB wireless then? is it a plus and play? or does it have to be via the ethernet connection? |

Sorry but I can't resist an aside.....
