[QUOTE="easysat, post: 519608, member: 175305"] I've tried both. I use the connection for downloading software to a 7000S, uploading recorded movies to the PC and streaming video to the PC for watching programmes on the PC using VLC. A 11Mb/s powerline connection wasn't sufficiently fast to stream video to my PC but OK for downloading software to the box. I think this was partly down to the electrical wiring configuration in my house and partly because powerline devices are sensitive to other electronic equipment sharing the same mains socket (because of the interference generated by the equipment's switched mode power supply). Maybe you need to try an 85Mb/s device at least if not one of the latest 200Mb/s ones. Wireless LAN (802.11g) via a wireless ethernet adaptor works fine in my set up over a ~8 metre distance and two solid walls but as I am in a house there is not much interference from nearby neighbours. Or to be more correct, it works fine for standard definition TV programmes. Streaming HD TV like the BBC HD or LuxeTV HD seems to require a higher bit rate than my wireless LAN can deliver. I can't be 100% sure of this as I don't have a proper HD Dreambox and I also had some issues with my CPU video processing power. [/QUOTE]
