After some use now, we can now report about our experience with the PC2TV. I have tried the product with three TVs in two households with FIOS wifi and with Brighthouse WiFi. from Amazon.com The other reviewer who had problem was probably due to his (fios) router . Mine is Linksys router which is independant of any service provider and it routes correctly. The way this thing works is - The laptop sends to router and the router streams back to PC2TV which is connected to TV . So the router plays in an important role here! from Amazon.com Got it home, plugged everything up and installed the software on my wireless laptop. I didn't realize it would be using our wireless network, and was surprised at first to see that it connected immediately to it, and that it also assigned a different IP address to my computer (no problems with that). I had the PC2TV unit connected to my Samsung 42" LCD, and the picture was clear and stable. I played a few YouTube videos through the laptop to the TV, and while somewhat choppy (to be expected), the overall quality was presentable. from Amazon.com I purchased this unit yesterday (8-21-08) at Fry's hoping it would be simple to use. Similar to the new Roku set top box for Netflix. Unfortunately the VisonTek Pc2Tv seems to follow the trend of similar devices sold. Unless you have three days to kill messing with it; or money for a hardware/router changes don't bother. from Amazon.com After some use now, we can now report about our experience with the PC2TV.
