Audo video extender update - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

The last discussion I found on this subject is from 2007 so I thought I would check for updates.

I am a new Sat user. I would like to have a wireless option for a second TV. I am currently using a Wavecom that was recommended. It operates on 2.4Gz.

When it works it is acceptable.. Unfortunately there seems to be a number of things that interfer with it. I have identified my laptop bluetooth but can not find the other sources, which may also be from a neighbor.

I have read in the 2007 discussion that wireless networks also operate on 2.4 and might be the problem. I have one but it doesn't seem to be it.

The ideal of course is to run a cable but the construction makes that a bigger project then I would like.

The main question is, with technology changing as fast as it does, has anyone found an extended that overcomes this problem, perhaps operates on a different frequency?

Thanks in advance for the feedback.

There are some now which operate at about 5GHz (Maplin list some).
Other 2.4GHz devices include DECT bases and handsets.

Yes please list them. I have tried some optioms and ended up not only with poor quality but non-operating wireless lan.
